** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
  
  After updating to the most recent xserver-xorg-video-intel found in the
- x-swat PPA (uploaded on the 19th of October I think) X fails to start
- with this error:
+ x-swat PPA for Jaunty (uploaded on the 19th of October I think) X fails
+ to start. The log contains this error:
  
  (EE) Failed to load module "i810" (module does not exist, 0)
  
- This may be related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
- /xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/431955, which has the same error message.
- However I am running Jaunty and not Karmic.
+ but this message is harmless and can safely be ignored. The real error
+ is this one:
+ 
+ "Cannot run in framebuffer mode"
+ 
+ This is in fact the same as bug #383407 in Karmic.
+ 
+ WORKAROUND:
+ Create a minimal xorg.conf, for instance like this:
+ 
+ Section "Device"
+     Identifier "my-intel-card"
+     Driver "intel"
+ EndSection
+
