[Bug 429419] Re: xorg.conf needs to be reconfigured at each reboot

 

Last update until the problem is solve ...

I think i found something worth interest.

Today, i installed the fglrx driver from the repositories of Kubuntu
9.10 RC and it installed well. Then after i reboot i logged normally and
then i had to setup the correct screen resolution. No big deal so far
but when i reboot same problem as before. But i reboot again and choose
the normal boot instead of the recovery mode i wanted. During the boot,
a routine file system check has been performed automaticly (i think it
is performed automaticly after a certain amount of boot) and then resume
to the rest of the boot process. SURPRISE ! I had my graphic back !!!
But my joy was short because when i had to reboot the problem shown up
again.

I wanted to see if it was just a lucky shot or it was something else so
i reboot lots of times until the file system check was performed again
and guess what? Yes, i had my graphic back again ! There is something in
that file system check that seems to repair somehow the problem but not
permanently just until the next reboot. I don't know much about
programming but i'd bet it has something to do with the use (or no use)
of the "xorg.conf" file by Kubuntu 9.10.

Maybe it's a good clue or maybe not, as i said i'm not a programmer but
the fact everything return to normal after the automatic file system
check, even if it only solved my problem until i reboot, i think it
might worth investigating.

Sorry for my english, it's not my primary language.
