Installed xorg-edgers PPA [1] and did: aptitude update, aptitude upgrade, reboot After logging in and starting to pull down menus, I no longer get a freeze, but Xorg crashes and I am left with a black screen with a mouse pointer that I can move about, but I am now able to switch VT (Ctrl-Alt-F2) and log in to a console. At this point, restarting gdm switches it back to X but it is just a black screen with a movable mouse cursor.
Is there a quick way to generate an xorg.conf file with the current settings being used by Xorg ? or do I have to create one from scratch ? (BTW "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" doesn't work) [1]: https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa -- [i855] Lucid Freeze shortly after X startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/511001 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
