[Touch-packages] [Bug 1574154] Re: xorg.conf changed on start of lightdm service

2022-02-15 Thread Paul White 
Thanks for your reply. Yes, some bug reports
do seem to be forgotten.  ;o)

Closing as "Invalid" on the basis the issue was
never confirmed by another user and the Xenial
release is now EOL.

Title:
  xorg.conf changed on start of lightdm service

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  After upgrading from 15.10 (Wily) to 16.04 (Xenial), X wont start. It
  appears that my xorg.conf is modified such that I get a non-working
  way (I get a coredump in the video driver I think). I have a Thinkpad
  T530 with dual video cards, so I change the from the nvidia that is
  somewere(?) auto selected back to intel. Alas, restarting of lightdm
  service does not work: xorg.conf is re-modified. Manually starting a X
  session with 'startx' (after correcting xorg.conf) works as expected.
  Alas, nobody logs about this; that would have helped me find the
  culprit..

  Who modifies my xorg.conf? Why? This never happened before, and should
  IMHO not be done.

  Temporary solution: 'chattr +i /etc/X11/xorg.conf'. This makes auto-
  changing impossible. But this is a hack. I should be allowed to change
  my system such that it works the way I want.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1574154] Re: xorg.conf changed on start of lightdm service

2022-02-13 Thread Jos Nouwen
Wow, a reply on a bug report after 6 years! I did not mean this to be
negative, just surprised that I got a response this late. I forgot all
about it, but this brings a lot back. Back then, I was mostly wondering
what was in the mind of someone to change a user-modifiable config
file..

But anyway, the T540 is running 20.04 now, and I dont see that problem
anymore; maybe because I dont use a xorg.conf currently. And, the T540
is currently retiring ;-)

Anyway, No problem for me anymore. Status can be changed to 'Time made
us forget this' ;-)

Btw: I'm still proud of my quick fix: 'chattr +i xorg.conf' ;-)

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1574154] Re: xorg.conf changed on start of lightdm service

2022-02-12 Thread Paul White 
We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all
reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago
and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.

Ubuntu 16.04 (xenial) reached end-of-standard-support on April 29, 2021.

Do you still see a problem related to the one that you reported when
using a currently supported version of Ubuntu? Please let us know if you
do otherwise this report can be left to expire in approximately 60 days
time.

Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.
