Motherboard and Chipset Change .... No startx


Hello,

I just had a motherboard and power supply die on me on my Ubuntu (64bit) system. After changing out the motherboard and power supply, I can boot into console, but if it tries to startx it gives me a blinking cursor that never leaves or changes.

How do I re-configure startx to use my new drivers since the chipset has changed.

Thanks!
Cameron

For x, you can use dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
