Hi,
I'm S/W engineer in ASPEED Technology Inc. The system will show "Ubuntu is running in low-graphics mode" when launch X Server.
Here are some test we do:
1. reconfiure graphics; Create new configuration for the hardware; cp xorg.conf.new to /etc/X11/xorg.conf; cp AST2000 driver to /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers; reboot => the problem still exist (see attachment)
2. if I change the driver from 'ast' to 'vesa' in xorg.conf and reboot => the problem still exist
I tried to check Xorg.0.log, it looks like the AST2000's driver had been enabled properly. I don't know why the system still force to failsafe mode. Please comment.
Besides, we found the 'ast' driver didn't be included in Ubuntu in default. If we hope we can be included in later Ubuntu release, what should we do?

Regards,

Y.C. Chen
