[John Winterton <jwinterton@xxxxxxxxx>]

Public bug reported:

Much information was gathered by the system.  If necessary, I will
attached the Xorg log, but I believe it is there.

I am currently running in low video mode.

I reported this previously, but I think it was misdirected.  I've been
expecting a fix before the 10.10 launch, but none has appeared.

There appears to be a missing variable or symbolic error in the driver.
