Title:
  black screen on boot; boot unsuccessful

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  xserver-xorg-video-nouveau used to work perfectly. Then I attached a
  2nd monitor and adjusted the settings (successfully, as I thought),
  but the next boot was to a black screen. I can only boot in recovery
  mode, and cannot access high resolution (1600 x 900).

  I gave up on the 2nd monitor, uninstalled and re-installed xserver-
  xorg-video-nouveau, then installed (and removed) in turn the three
  proprietary nvidia drivers, none of which worked. They are now purged,
  and xserver-xorg-video-nouveau reinstalled. I've looked for solutions
  on the web, but I'm at a complete loss. Thanks for any help you can
  give.
