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

 

I can now confirm this myself. I have installed a Maverick partition and
got a "no screens" when booting with an external monitor attached and X
in low-graphics mode. Thanks to Glen for already finding out where the
failsafeX-backup-....tar went.

** Description changed:

  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
+   $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.
