[QUOTE=Cambo;6082619]I was having the same problem of X not starting up after installing Intrepid. (We won't go into the mess that was created trying to upgrade Hardy :/ )
The answer I ended up working out was to add a Busid entry in the Device section of my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.
These instructions solved my problem entirely. /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ xorg/+bug/ 307073
I have a similar bug: https:/
Though I think mine is SLI related, since Xorg didn't know what to do with two GPUs.

The answer I ended up working out was to add a Busid entry in the Device section of my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.
To find the correct Busid, I used;
sudo lspci | grep VGA
The output I got from this was;
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G70 [GeForce 7600 GT] (rev a1)
04:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G70 [GeForce 7600 GT] (rev a1)
(Yes, SLI :D )
So, I then edited the Device section of my /etc/X11/xorg.conf to read as follows;
Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
Busid "PCI:1:0:0"
Driver "nvidia"
EndSection
A quick;
sudo service gdm restart
and I was greeted by X running at the maximum resolution of my LCD monitor.
Hope that helps one or two of you.
