Well, it was a simple thing to try. No output means, of course, that there were no errors listed in the logs. Or -- if you used the
exact command I suggested, nothing for today with "error:" in it.
You could try a wider search:
Code:
sudo cat /var/log/* 2>/dev/null | grep -i "error"
to list all occurrences of any line with "error" in it, but you'll get several lines
defining error conditions, which may be confusing.
Since you seem to be able to run without the Xserver, I'd suspect that your
/etc/X11/xorg.conf file might be "out-of-sync" with your display hardware. In order to check that, you need to know
exactly what vidieo chip set you're using, what its specificatiions are, and the
exact specifications for your display system. You'll need to review
the info file for the xserver, or ask others here fore help.
I'd look for a video buffer size that was wrong, or a DMA address range that was incorrect.
You may have noted from my tag information that I run a Fedora system, not Kubuntu, so I can't give you any specific help, just these kinds of "generic" comments.
Sorry -- I jumped in because you weren't getting
any suggestions.
Consider starting another thread, listing your full system hardware specification: CPU, Memory, RAM size, HD size(s) and manufacture, display system, video chip set, etc. List what you've tried, and what you know, and -- hopefully -- someone in the Ubuntu group will help.
Again, my apolpgies
but I don't think I can offer much more.
