Bug Description

Hello,

on 27.09.2014 i did a system upgrade from ubuntu 12.04 (64bit) to ubuntu 14.04.1. LTS (GNU/Linux 3.13.0-36-generic x86_64)
(A test with the Live DVD 14.04 LTS before the dist-upgrade, was sucessfully.)
After reboot there was no GUI, only the console. After a login, doing nothing at this state, after some minutes a white screen appears. Seems to be the screensaver.
Trying tharting the GUI with "startx" there were following errors:

AstroPhysik, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p xorg 1376618

Please ensure you have xdiagnose installed, and that you click the Yes button for attaching additional debugging information.

As well, given the information from the prior release is already available, testing a release prior to the development one would not be helpful.

Thank you for your understanding.
