Finally, it probes the monitor(s) for DDC or EDID information to determine its resolution, dpi, and other capabilities, and brings them up. Next, it loads the driver and initializes it. It does this by polling the PCI bus for VGA devices, and then checks their PCI ID's against a registry of PCI ID's each video driver has reported as supported if none are found, -vesa is the fallback. Since Hardy, the X server auto-detects what driver should be loaded for the video hardware it detects as present. If you want to use a proprietary driver, this piece needs to be disabled in order for the proprietary driver to load.

The open source drivers use kernel mode setting (KMS), which makes the kernel portion of the graphics driver get loaded very early on in boot. With this system, you can install any number of drivers, each of which places their GL files into their own separate subdirectories, and /usr/lib/libGL.so becomes just a symbolic link to whatever you've chosen to use. The GL libraries are installed using an alternatives system. In this case look in /var/log/gdm/*, /var/log/Xorg.0.log, dmesg, or /var/log/syslog for error messages and go from there. /var/log/Xorg.0.log shows some other non-VESA driver, but just isn't loading up for some reason.If you've never had -fglrx installed on your system, there is no chance you have this problem.The key works on systems with nvidia graphics but does weird things on systems with intel graphics. You installed Ubuntu to a USB key and installed one of the proprietary drivers onto it.Your system has hybrid graphics, and after toggling to the other graphics card strange things are happening.Things were working fine, then you booted a different kernel and now they aren't.it works in 2D but 3D apps or compiz doesn't work properly weird things are being displayed on the monitor, or You've just (un)installed a proprietary driver, and now.Various crashes, freezes, rendering errors, etc.

Failure to boot, perhaps including an error mentioning MTRRs.

You had -fglrx installed previously but have switched to -ati, and now are seeing various odd problems including one or more of the following:.

With a driver specified in /etc/X11/nf, booting X ignores the setting and loads vesa instead.

With no driver specified in /etc/X11/nf, booting X loads the vesa driver (as seen by many "VESA:" lines in your /var/log/Xorg.0.log instead of "INTEL:", "FGLRX:", etc.).

The NVIDIA binary driver is installed but X boots without 3D, or fails to boot, intermittently.Problem: nvidia drivers from won't install.Problem: Swapping drive between system with -nvidia and non-nvidia causes breakage.Problem: Switching drivers on system with hybrid graphics.Problem: Need to manually review/tweak alternatives settings.Problem: Breaks after upgrading to or from a proprietary driver and restarting X.Problem: Need to fully remove -nvidia and reinstall -nouveau from scratch.Problem: Missing NVIDIA kernel module on boot causes rapidly flashing black screen during boot.Problem: X is falling back to vesa or fbdev.Problem: Video card not supported by driver.
