[Bug 572818] Re: X wont start

 

I am getting the same message. My system is an IBM Thinkpad R50e with an
Intel 855GM chipset. I have tried to rename /etc/X11/xorg.conf and
reboot. I get a longer /var/log/Xorg.0.log (attached) but the same
message is included. I also noticed that it says no devices detected.

This has been the case since Lucid. I recently upgrade to Maverick RC
hoping that it had been fixed. I had no issues prior to Lucid for
several releases.

Here is the content of xorg.conf

Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
Driver	"vesa"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Configured Monitor"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Monitor "Configured Monitor"
Device "Configured Video Device"
DefaultDepth 32
Subsection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 32
Modes "1024x768" "800x600"
EndSubSection
EndSection

and the content of xorg.conf.failsafe which works

Section "Device"
	Identifier	"Configured Video Device"
	Driver		"fbdev"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
	Identifier	"Configured Monitor"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
	Identifier	"Default Screen"
	Monitor		"Configured Monitor"
	Device		"Configured Video Device"
EndSection

I have also noticed that opening Google Earth it reports that the system
is running in OpenGL and is using software emulation.
