** Description changed: - Problem 1. if miniDVI (connected to NVIDIA card) is connected upon boot, - the desktop resolution is detected incorrectly. - - Problem 2. lightdm won't start from scratch, needs to be restarted as service on every boot, and then ctrl+alt+f7 has to be pressed repeatedly until the login window appears, and then again repeatedly, until the desktop appears (after which, the miniDVI can be inserted). If you skip the first repeated pressing, you end up with a console window saying "/org/FreeDesktop/Accounts/User1000 has been changed". If you skip the second repeated pressing, you revert to login window. - Yes, I've tried the following: - sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm - sudo chown -R <username> . - sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop unity unity-greeter - including setting HEED_DEFAULT_DESKTOP_MANAGER=false in /etc/init.d/lightdm - - Problem 3. right now (as of yesterday), unity decorator and dash does - not apper after login, and "dconf reset -f /org/compiz/ && setsid" unity - has to be run from lightdm, provided that you somehow manage to get a - terminal up (ctrl+alt+T does not work, neither does Alt+f2) - - The result of this: - - sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date - is: - - A14 - 09/24/2014 - - Sorry for the mess, I'd be happy to provide further information, since this laptop seems to be an outlier to all your fixes. - P.S. "/etc/modprobe.d is not a file" still persists... + If miniDVI (connected to NVIDIA card) is connected upon boot, the + desktop resolution is detected incorrectly.
