These instructions solved my problem entirely. I have a similar bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/307073 Though I think mine is SLI related, since Xorg didn't know what to do with two GPUs.
http://ubuntuforums.org/newreply.php?do=newreply&p=6082619 [QUOTE=Cambo;6082619]I was having the same problem of X not starting up after installing Intrepid. (We won't go into the mess that was created trying to upgrade Hardy :/ ) The answer I ended up working out was to add a Busid entry in the Device section of my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. To find the correct Busid, I used; sudo lspci | grep VGA The output I got from this was; 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G70 [GeForce 7600 GT] (rev a1) 04:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G70 [GeForce 7600 GT] (rev a1) (Yes, SLI :D ) So, I then edited the Device section of my /etc/X11/xorg.conf to read as follows; Section "Device" Identifier "Configured Video Device" Busid "PCI:1:0:0" Driver "nvidia" EndSection A quick; sudo service gdm restart and I was greeted by X running at the maximum resolution of my LCD monitor. Hope that helps one or two of you.
