Hi, Sorry been a bit busy. Just tried Bryce's recommendation and it doesn't really work. I don't end up with a mashed up display which is an improvement but fbdev gives up with a 'mode initialisation failed' so I don't get the GUI just a plain old text TTY waiting for me to log in (which is fine

Perfect! That reproduces (or probably should say unveils) the bug. I'd had a go at breaking things but nothing quit so blunt as simply over-writing xorg.conf with nonsense ;-) Have done sudo su cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak echo foobar >> /etc/X11/xorg.conf I get the foll

Just thought that the Xorg.failsafe.logs might be more pertinent to this issue that Xorg.0.logs. find attached Xorg.failsafe.log and Xorg.failsale.log.old. These date from when I was having problems seeing the "low resolution" warning. 'Xorg.failsafe.old' is a boot with a '2.6.28' where the resol

Hi, Unfortunately the fixing of bug #491483 means that its going to be difficult to reproduce. However I do suspect that the problem with failsafe selecting the wrong resolution (with 2.6.31 kernels) on my machine hasn't gone away. Its just hidden until the next time X / upstart breaks. Any sug

Hi Bryce, having downgraded my Xorg as per post#19 of bug #491483 my system is currently okay. Unfortunately I don't have time to update X and reproduce it again until begining of next week. Hope that's okay. -- upstart failsafe incorrect screen resolution when running with 2.6.31 kernerls http

I'm thinking this is related to bug #491483. No-one mentions messed up upstart displays but the "cure" seems to be to roll back the X updates as set out in post#19 bug #491483. -- upstart failsafe incorrect screen resolution when running with 2.6.31 kernerls https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/49227

Using a DELL laptop M1210 with an Intel chip set. Upstart gets the wrong screen resolution for the "failsafe" mode which it uses to try and tell me that Ubuntu is using low resolution mode. I'm left looking at a mushed up display. Attempts to reach a console are in vain as all I can get are blan
