[Openchrome-users] How to say No!! in a polite though ridiculous way

[Tamás Gajdos]

Hi,

I don't know if this is a packaging problem or not. But I had the same
issue with Ubuntu 17.04 around 2017.01.10.

I solved the problem by adding some extra modules to the xorg.conf.

Section "Module"
    Load    "vgahw"
    Load    "shadowfb"
    Load    "shadow"
    Load    "exa"
    Load    "fb"
    Load    "drm"
    Load    "ramdac"
EndSection

Maybe not all of them is needed as I was trying to debug another issue.
