This requires 3 commits from upstream libpciaccess git, all contained in 0.13.1 that is in quantal, which is why the bug never manifested there. http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libpciaccess/commit/?id=f550c1347d3518874fe1c1d417a57322ee6b52db http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libpciaccess/commit/?id=b16336c0b389ace07f7418f5a021bfbc68fec2b6 (which fixes the previous commit on ARM) http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libpciaccess/commit/?id=d2dc9f9daa45504f035b169aba94d0b154fd29f0 [Test Case] Try to boot 12.04.2 in a virtualbox VM without guest extensions so vesa is used. If working, X will start and the desktop will come up normally. [Original Subject] Hello!
