Title:
lightdm improperly report low graphics card
Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Today, after reinstall my nvidia drivers, I started to get an error
after X starts, before lightdm login screen, saying thar my computer
was in low graphics mode and asking me what to do. Whatever option I
choose, the screen backs to the terminal.
I thought for hours that I had a X driver problems, and tried a lot of
drivers, nouveau, nvidia-current, nvidia-current-updates... No
success. After search a little bit on the internet, I found this site,
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1970586 saying that after
change to gdm the problem were gone. So I did, everything is working
fine, with gdm + unity-2d-shell.
I found other users complaining about similar problems:
