Title:
  Lightdm fails to start ("no screens found") but gdm works fine

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This is on an 18-month old Thinkpad T410 with a long history of minor
  workarounds to fix hardware compatibility bugs; upgrading from
  maverick to oneiric with a very brief stopover in natty.  In order to
  get an x session to load I had to switch from lightdm back to gdm.
  There's no xorg.conf anymore (!!) so I don't know where to look, or
  what to alter, to fix the problem.  The x-0.log, which I don't think
  is attached,  reads:

  (==) Using system config directory "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d"
  (EE) intel(0): [drm] failed to set drm interface version.
  (EE) intel(0): Failed to become DRM master.
  DRM_IOCTL_I915_GEM_APERTURE failed: Bad file descriptor
  Assuming 131072kB available aperture size.
  May lead to reduced performance or incorrect rendering.
  get chip id failed: -1 [9]
  param: 4, val: 0
  (EE) intel(0): failed to get resources: Bad file descriptor
  (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.

  Fatal server error:
  no screens found

  Happy to install debug packages, etc., if need be but I imagine this is just a config issue.  Thanks,
  Matt
