Bug Description
I have just upgraded to Edgy, and the vesa driver no longer appears to be working.
I have created a new xorg.conf with
dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg. This selects trident, and gives an X that just about works, but is not satisfactory. (See https:/
If I change the Device driver to "vesa", when I boot the system, after the usplash screen disappears, the screen stays blank and the gdm screen does not appear. I will try to give a Xorg log file later on today.
Changed in xorg: | |

I forgot to mention that the keyboard is unresponsive when the screen is blank, so I either have to press the off button or ssh in from another machine. Incidentally, when I ssh in, X is taking up 99% of the CPU.
I'm also attaching an Xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log.
