[Bug 616738] [NEW] Xorg not robust when proprietary drivers are not present

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Due to bug #616734 I have the situation that Nvidia drivers are not
properly compiled. Subsequently Xorg complains in it's log about the
driver not being present but does not start at all (not even in the low
graphic backup mode). It should at least be that robust to then try to
fall back to nouveau drivers and after that to vesa.
