Public bug reported:
After upgrading Xubuntu 12.04 LTS -> 14.04.1 LTS, system boots to black
screen instead of desktop environment, but single user command line
works fine. Problem traced to xorg-server segfault crash in the Trident
driver as below (summary of details already uploaded). The code attempts
a call to an offset against eax which is a null pointer.
After changing the acceleration architecture from XAA to EXA with
Option "AccelMethod" "exa"
in the Trident Device section of xorg.conf, the desktop environment loaded
successfully.
Maybe this option should now be the default for Trident?
