Public bug reported: On lenovo t61p thinkpad with nVidia Corporation Quadro FX 570M graphics card the installer fails to create a usable xorg.conf file and the system reboots into an unusable black screen as x refuses to start. The installer selects the nv driver, which does not support this card.
The only fix for this is to reboot into rescue mode and hand-edit xorg.conf to use vesa driver until restricted nvidia driver is enabled. Output of lspci -v and lspci -vvnn attached ** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- installer fails to create usable xserver config https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/155245 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
