[Bug 504254] [NEW] Lucid Lynx: /usr/bin/X: Segmentation fault at address (nil)

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I hope this time i filed the Bug in the right place. On Lucid (incl.
updates from 07.01.10) X is aborting when GDM should load. I'm getting
an "Ubuntu runs in low graphics mode" message. Continuing in low
graphics mode works only when Ubuntu was started with the "nomodeset"
Kernel Option.

When not using this, returning to the Console in Low Graphics Mode
Options does not work, I only get a black screen.

Using "nomodeset", returning to the console and do a "startx",  I get
the following messages:

22: /usr/bin/X (0x8048000+0x1e931) [0x8066931]
Segmentation fault at address (nil)

Caught signal 11 (Segmentation fault). Server aborting

After trying two or three times, startx works sometimes, sometimes not.
