Public bug reported:
Upgraded via update-manager from 11.10,
On restart got from tail /var/log/Xorg.0.log
23.997] (II) NOUVEAU(0): NVEnterVT is called.
[ 24.661] (EE) NOUVEAU(0): failed to set mode: Invalid argument
Fatal server error:
[ 24.661] failed to create screen resources
The monitor briefly displayed 2 messages
[drm:drm_crtc_helper_set_config] *ERROR* failed to set mode on [CRTC:6]
then gave a text login prompt.
Tried renaming, and also copying /etc/X11/xorg.conf from xorg.conf.default
still with same effect
Tried nomodeset but got a very slow, tiled, stripey desktop, unusable
Note: can run from liveCD 12.04 with no problem, tried this before
upgrading
Note: have to run with option nolapic because of another bug #878031 .
