Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xorg
The default intrepid install locks up during the startup of xorg. The result is
a black screen, and dead keyboard - not even ctrl+alt+bksp or alt+sysrq+r do
anything.
I believe it occasionally did open the display, but with dead keyboard and
mouse - this is very difficult to reproduce however.
When I edit xorg.conf, and add:
Subsection "Module"
Disable "dri"
EndSubsection
It loads and works absolutely fine.
Package version:
xorg:
Installed: 1:7.4~5ubuntu3
