Caught this while trying to enable nvidia drivers for my old geforce4 and got
in failsafe mode.
here is what dexconfig (presumably) generates after selecting reconfigure and
reset to defaults:
Section Device

I have a problem and wonder if it has something in common with this bug.
I have had karmic-purposed sources on and after one of the last updates
Xorg keeps sending me to a failsafe-session instead of starting up
properly. I hardly understand whats the problem, because restarting kdm
results in X

Nope, this wouldn't cause that issue.

At least dexconf still cannot generate a xorg.conf file, error similar
to one in first post:
[pid 17251] ... read resumed GET xserver-xorg/config/device/bus_id\n, 4096)
= 38
[pid 17251] write(7, 10 xserver-xorg/config/device/bus_id doesn't exist\n,
51) = 51
repo proposed activated, versions:
I can verify that the new proposed upload works properly.
@Roman:
The new functionality does not depend upon dexconf. The failsafe xorg.conf is
generated by just cat'ing it out.

Didn't know that, thought because of
+ exec /usr/share/debconf/frontend /etc/gdm/failsafeDexconf vesa xorg.conf (see
initial post)
that both are linked. Will retry to generate failsafe xorg.conf.

There is one command in the GUI which still tries to generate via
dexconf. That probably should be disabled too, but that's separate from
this issue. First goal should just be to get user into the low graphics
mode so they can proceed with reinstalling -nvidia or whatever.

Accepted xorg into karmic-proposed, the package will build now and be
available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed. Thank you in advance!

Fixing package. This really *is* a bug in xorg (where the failsafe
stuff comes from). I just forcefully induced the failure using NVIDIA.
