this bug may not be fixed in karmic xorg - 1:7.4+3ubuntu10
Caught this while trying to enable nvidia drivers for my old geforce4 and got
in failsafe mode.
here is what dexconfig (presumably) generates after selecting reconfigure and
reset to defaults:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
BusID "10 xserver-xorg/config/device/bus_id doesn't exist"
EndSection
I removed the BusID line in failsafe dialogue, returned to shell login (tty1)
and ran sudo service gdm start.
Now X works with default config.
