[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1039849] [NEW] X with i915 driver fails to start up after updates
Public bug reported: I've not been using this laptop for a while, but then I did, installed updates, rebooted, and ever since I'm running into failsafe X. I made some changes in between trying to see whether they would help it to load up (such as explicitly defining the driver in xorg.conf) but those didn't change the situation. I'm stuck now, not sure what to do, and would appreciate some hints. I asked for help in #ubuntu but since I don't know what exactly the problem is we didn't get anywhere really. If there's anything I can do to provide more information please let me know. This may be an issue related to gdm actually, since the only error message I can find now is in /var/log/gdm/:0.log: Fatal server error: Server is already active for display 0 If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock and start again. Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support at http://wiki.x.org for help. ddxSigGiveUp: Closing log /var/log/gdm/:0.log (END) But maybe I missed something in the other relevant logs...

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1039849] Re: X with i915 driver fails to start up after updates
This actually seems to be due to bugs in lightdm. After switching to gdm this issue no longer occurs, I can login without any failsafe X prompt ever showing up.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 972024] [NEW] RADEONDRIGetVersion failed because of version mismatch (1.17.0 - 2.10.0)
Public bug reported: Hi, since rebooting my ATI GPU (X1650) based system today, I can no longer start X. It worked fine until the reboot, and my last reboot was about a week ago (there was no pending kernel upgrade until today). Xorg.0.log reports: [EE] RADEON(0): [dri] RADEONDRIGetVersion failed because of version mismatch. [dri] This chipset requires a kernel module version 1.17.0, [dri] but the kernel reports a version of 2.10.0.[dri] Make sure your module is loaded prior to starting X, and [dri] that this driver was built with support for KMS. [dri] Aborting. It then tells me that screens were found but none have a usable configuration. So that's kind of an overall failure. I am using ubuntu-x updates (packages by sarvatt), but hope you can still help me out... NB: Booting into an earlier kernel version (3.0.0-16-generic) did not help. Thanks in advance for any help.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 576336] Re: [gm45] VT switch causes X session to be lost
While I experienced this or symptomatically equal bug with the same GPU in the past, it has been fixed for me on 10.04 for several months, and does not occur (and has never occurred) on 10.10. I can't tell about earlier Ubuntu releases which are still supported. -- [gm45] VT switch causes X session to be lost https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/576336 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
