    In xorg.conf:
    Code:
    Change 
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Keyboard1"
        Driver      "keyboard"
To
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Keyboard1"
        Driver      "kbd"
    This changed in Xorg version 6.8.1 or 6.8.2.
    I\'m so tired .....

    Module not found

    The following link contains my Xorg.0.log.

    I ran some updates on my Ubuntu and now X won't start. If kbd and mouse modules have been replaced, what have they been replaced with. How do I find out that.

    Thanks
