Bug#508476: xserver-xorg-core: Cannot run in framebuffer mode. Please specify busIDs for all framebuffer devices



Package: xserver-xorg-core
Version: 2:1.5.3-1
Severity: grave

Hi there!

I tried a configless situation with the latest X.Org in experimental,
but this resulted in X not starting at all:

I do not remember why I have installed the X.Org fbdev, but simply
removing it (version 1:0.4.0-2 from experimental) lets X starts.

I am not completely sure the severity is correct, but from what I
understood X tries to use every driver is installed, which does not
sound correct to me.

BTW1, in the information below, I substituted the Xorg.0.log with the
      one coming from the non-starting X

BTW2, why does X consider not having a config file an non-fatal error?
      Should not that be a warning instead?

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
