After rebooting, gdm couldn't detect the Xserver running. Later, upgrading to 1:6.7.193-1ubuntu1 didn't make a difference. I tried to dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg with no luck. Only downgrading to 1:6.6.193-1ubuntu1 gets rid of the problem. My Dell 2005FPW LCD screen is connected to the MacMini through a DVI cable and my card is a "VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200] (rev 01)" per lspci.

I'm attaching the Xorg.0.log.

What connectors does it have? based on apple's web site, it looks like it has just a DVI port that can drive DVI or VGA or tv-out (via DVI adapters). I'm guessing it uses internal TMDS and the TV DAC. The question is what ddc line it uses. Does adding the following option in the device section of your config help? Option "ConnectorTable" "X,1,0,3,0,1,2,6" replace X with 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 until you get DDC working. Once we sort this out, I'll add a MacModel option for the mini.

I tried the ConnectorTable option with 1..5 values without success. All values seemed to have the same result: ... (EE) RADEON(0): No valid modes. (II) UnloadModule: "ati" (II) UnloadModule: "radeon" (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration. Fatal server error: no screens found However, for X=4 X didn't end with an error though the screen went to sleep mode (I guess that's because it was receiveing bad values). I kept all 5 Xorg.0.log files; let me know which one would help or whether I should try different values in ConnectorTable. Thanks a lot!
