Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
Bug reporting is mostly about finding & fixing problems thus preventing future users from hitting the same bug. I suspect a Support site would be more appropriate, eg. https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu. You can also find help with your problem in the support forum of your local Ubuntu community http://loco.ubuntu.com/ or asking at https://askubuntu.com or https://ubuntuforums.org, or for more support options please look at https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/community-support/709 I also wonder if you're trying to do something that isn't in your best interests (I was reminded me of Daniel van Vugt's comment #16 in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video- intel/+bug/1867668), but I'll change package to xorg-server too. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1895600 Title: Error in xorg package Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: I want to check if my video graphics card of Intel is installed in the system but am unable to do so.
