forbidden404Hey, there, I installed Ubuntu 12.10 today but I can't open it with normal graphics, I think it's a problem with Xorg (actually I know there is a problem with Xorg), but I can't solve it, can you guys help me? This is my logs > http://paste.ubuntu.com/1195838/03:01
forbidden404Or modesetting03:01
trismforbidden404: I took a quick look but didn't notice any bugs with a similar crash, your best bet is probably to use: ubuntu-bug xorg; and include the crash from your pastebin03:03
forbidden404trism, thank you, I will do it03:05

forbidden404Daekdroom, yes, my system is up-to-date. trism, I will do it again, but I don't get any update anyway03:16

trismforbidden404: that's an old xserver-xorg-core package, we are on 2:1.13.0-0ubuntu103:17

trismforbidden404: hope it fixes your issue03:20
forbidden404trism: I will finish this update and then reboot, I'll be back soon :)03:21
forbidden404I'm back and didn't work, sadly03:42
trismforbidden404: that's unfortunate, probably best to try: ubuntu-bug xorg; once more03:43

NEoneI installed gnome-shell on 12.10, it asked if default shall be "lightdm" or "gdk". Had no idea what that means, and chose "lightdm". (Was that the right choice?). Now when I login to "gnome (classic)" shell and change settings in the gnome-tweak-tool (like for example "show computer" and "show home folder" on desktop), this affects the Unity desktop too.17:01
