X.Org upgrade resulted in screen, graphics card & input device not detected

[Dennis]

Ever since an X.Org upgrade, both my Ubuntu and Mint machines fail to detect my screen, graphics card, and input device correctly.This happened to both machines at the same time after an upgrade. Running my Ubuntu machine in low-graphics mode works, but I have yet to even resolve the issue on my Mint machine. I assume this report contains log files, but I include info. from the xserver log file, below, which contains the following info. on module ABI versions, and the following errors, and warnings:

Module ABI versions:
    X.Org ANSI C Emulation:0.4
    X.Org Video Driver: 20.0
    X.Org XInput drive:22.1
    X.Org Server Extension:9.0
