Bug Description

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-core

I have an Nvidia 6800 pci GPU that was not detected correctly after an upgrade from version 1:1.0.2-0ubuntu10 to version 1:1.0.2-0ubuntu10.3, meaning that I could not start X. I downgraded it and it is okay. I surmise the problem might be related to the following change from the Changelog:

xorg-server (1:1.0.2-0ubuntu10.2) dapper-updates; urgency=low

  * Added 005_pci_domain.dpatch (Closes Malone #54880)

Because much of the pci detection of the GPU in Xorg.0.log was missing after the upgrade.

Unfortunately the log from the failed session is now overwritten, but if you think you'll need a diff between the logs of the two sessions, then please let me know and I'll provide it.
