I just installed the latest batch of updates in Feisty and I got bit by this bug :) To confirm the package that was causing the problems, I copied all the DEBs that had just installed in the latest round from /var/cache/apt/archives and manually reinstalled them until I got to the one that broke X: console-setup
The latest version that caused the problem is "console- setup_1.13ubuntu4_all.deb" I'm using a Toshiba Satellite A25-S207 laptop which supposedly uses a Trident CyberBlade XP2 video chip (though the Device Manager says its a CycberBlade XPAi1) and haven't monkeyed around with any video drivers AFAIK :) -- Clobbered X screen state during installation https://launchpad.net/bugs/73955 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
