[Bug 538501] [NEW] [Lucid] Xorg crashes when you plug in a monitor

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

So I can use Ubuntu from a live CD, I have to unplug my monitor during
boot up and plug it back in again after boot, so the resolution is
correct. This bug is explained here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-
drivers/+bug/527638

I unplug my monitor and boot up lucid, once boot is complete, I plug in
my monitor, but xorg crashes. The screen displays a messed up desktop
(see screenshot). What is very odd, if I hit my power button, it will
successful shut down and even ask to eject my cd!

My computer is a Acer Aspire Revo R3600, with a nVidia ION chip. I am
guessing it will be using the nvidia open source drivers.

I'm sorry I cant give you any more details with config and log files,
but i cant get access to the desktop.
