Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner.

Ubuntu 11.04 (natty) reached end-of-life on October 28, 2012.

I'm setting the status of this bug to 'Invalid' as it's not seen any activity since it was opened. The nature of the problem suggests that the many updates to the package since 2012 have rendered this bug report irrelevant.

Changed in xorg-server (Ubuntu):
status:	New → Invalid
