[Bug 563191] Re: xorg starts in failsafe mode repeatedly with nouveau

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
  
  My beta 2 install of 10.04 won't do anything but boot into failsafe
  mode. However, it appears, based on the logs I see in /var/log/Xorg*,
  that it's not even trying anymore to use nouveau. I tried deleting
  xorg.conf.failsafe, but it recreates it.
  
  Strangely enough, it worked correctly after installing from the CD; but
  once I updated using apt-get dist-upgrade it no longer will start. There
  are no obvious errors in Xorg.failsafe.log.
  
  All the options provided on the screen seem to do nothing much useful;
  even telling it to continue in low graphics mode just results in a login
  prompt.
  
  My controller is a:
  
  03:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation ION VGA (rev b1)
  
  could that be related?
