Bug Description
[karmic UNR daily 20090702.
Boots up but says "Failed to start the X server". Details offered:
"Warning: Could not generate /etc/X11/
Hardware: Dell Mini 10v netbook. lspci shows a "Intel Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics COntroller (rev 03)"
It gives me a console but the line I'm typing on is below the bottom of the screen (I can't see myself type, but can see scrolled-up output).
When I try "startx", it says:
(==) Using config file: "/etc/X11/
(EE) intel(0): Output LVDS1 enabled but has no modes
(EE) intel(0): No modes.
followed by a backtrace 8 levels deep.
The file /etc/X11/xorg.conf is an empty file. When I remove that file and try "startx" again, I get the same error,
but in addition it says "(EE) Failed to load module "i810" (module does not exist, 0)" before the LVDS error.
xserver-xorg is version 1:7.4+3ubuntu4

the 0702 image probably was made in the middle of the issues with xorg/gdm which were causing this. can you try a newer image?
