[Bug 774296] [NEW] Can't start X after upgrade to Natty with kernel 2.6.38-8

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

After upgrade to Ubuntu 11.04, the X would not start except in safe
mode. Choosing the old kernel version (vmlinuz-2.6.35-28-generic) worked
around the problem, and I got the full X with hardware acceleration.

The first error in the failing Xorg log (attached) was
     (EE) fglrx(0): ACPI: DRM connection failed
