Title:
  Xorg crashed with SIGABRT in raise()

Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  This is probably my fault, but basically I installed my-tv to test my
  hauppauge tv tuner card and when I tuned to a channel my display
  resolution changed to 1024x786.  I tried to change it back but the
  resolution I was using (1280x1024) was no longer in the list.  I went
  through several steps trying to manually add back the configuration
  using a series of xrandr commands, but all of these were unsuccessful,
  so I tried editing the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.  I noticed the config
  file did not exist, so I created a new file and inserted a
  configuration for 1280x1024 and 1280x960.  I rebooted, and then I was
  hosed.  My system was recovered by re-running the setup for X server,
  BUT my 1280x1024 resolution is still missing.

  Anways, thats a summary of what happened and how I got to this.
