The breakage was introduced in xorg-server 2:1.9.99.901+git20110131.be3be758-0ubuntu6.
Seems like the vboxvideo DRI driver fails to load and then X crashes while trying to load a driver from the alternates dir. A workaround is to just remove /usr/lib/dri/vboxvideo_dri.so -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/722563 Title: vboxvideo DRI driver crashes Xorg on startup _______________________________________________ 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
