Title:
Xorg repeatedly fails to start [Cannot run in framebuffer mode. Please
specify busIDs for all framebuffer devices]
Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
On restart it sometimes happens that I get a message to the effect that my
graphics are operating in some kind of limited mode. An Xorg error is
mentioned. On OK I get a few options such as 'try starting in default mode' and
other options involving various possible tests, none of which seem to do much
or have much effect.
Clicking on 'start in default mode' always (so far) allows me to continue
normally however there follows a message 'ubuntu has experienced an error'
Wondering what's going on and whether I should be doing something different.
Somewhat ashamed of my ignorance. Been using Ubuntu for years but haven't
bothered to delve into the OS :-)
