[Bug 596819] [NEW] Failsafe X displays variable name instead of file name for debugging tarball

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

As reported in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-
video-intel/+bug/589940/comments/3 , when failsafe X is triggered by
using the nomodeset kernel option on intel hardware (which leads to an
expected failure on Maverick), the failsafe X dialog displays:

Relevant configuration and log files have been saved to:
  $xorg_backup_file

In this particular case the expected behaviour is that $xorg_backup_file
should have been expanded to /var/log/failsafeX-backup-100619201009.tar.

I haven't tried to reproduce this, since I currently don't have Maverick
installation up and running.

** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
