Hello Linux People, Good Monday morning to you all.
Been to my wits end on this one, so i have come here: Got an HP G60, with Ub-10.04 (2.6.32-34-generic) which last friday decided to run in low graphics mode - after a screen saving session - and after a series of poking around, it seems to me that its an issue to do with my xorg.conf set up. I have re-installed xserver-xorg - http://www.ubuntugeek.com/ubuntu-tiphow-to-removeinstall-and-reconfigure-xorg-without-reinstalling-ubuntu.html - to no solution, Have even re-installed intel drivers - http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-install-latest-intel-driver-2.12-on-ubuntu-10.04-lucid-lynx still to no solution. My /etc/X11/... directory seems to now have 4 copies of xorg.conf-backup-<timestamp>, as well as xorg.conf.failsafe. I´ve re-installed gdm, and re-run gdmsetup - which does not actually allow me to unlock the dialog box and play with those settings. Instead, after it has run, the log says: *WARNING **: Error calling GetValue('daemon/AutomaticLoginEnable'): Key not found* *DEBUG: init user = 'brian' auto=False* Because LUCID (and newer distros- i think - ) does not need an xorg.conf inorder to boot - something about the kernel taking over that responsibility - am not sure how to get the kernel to do my graphics recognition well enough Been thru some, stuff that talks about gdm2setup - which seems to be recommended for Lucid and newer distros - and so this morning, i tried it: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1358026 still, no solution. once i go past the login, what i get is a shell prompt. that's where am stuck. In the meantime, i thought to dig into the vast experience here. -- Love indeed conquers all..... Brian A. Ssennoga
