Fedora has a new driver out in the last few days that attempts to address (probably) the same problem. This is now at 1.3.0-5.fc7
As an experiment I extracted vesa_drv.so from the fedora package. Then I booted into an alpha version of the Ubuntu Feisty livecd, and copied over the vesa driver. Then i tried startx and the Xorg log had the same result. I am starting to think that the only real way to debug this is to put in detailed debugging output in the mode selection part of the driver. I looked at how much effort it would take to build vesa_drv from source, but ran out of time. Is there a simple set of instructions for building the driver? -- [regression] X broken in Feisty Herd 5 Live https://launchpad.net/bugs/89853 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
