I have installed Intrepid yesterday. Also got a black screen after login. My xorg.conf was almost empty. Is that normal? I installed the daily build.

My xorg.conf:
Section "Device"
 Identifier "Configured Video Device"
 Driver "Vesa"

EndSection

Section "Monitor"
 Identifier "Configured Monitor"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
 Identifier "Default Screen"
 Monitor "Configured Monitor"
 Device "Configured Video Device"

EndSection

It seems that I have a Intel 830M Chipset
I Have a onboard Intel video on a Intel board.

The Driver "Vesa" I did put in myself. Now I can use the system without problems. Only Compiz doesn't work anymore.

On older versions of Ubuntu the video worked perfectly, with Compiz enabled.
