Bug Description
I am running Ubuntu Linux 10.04 64 bits on a DELL 6510 notebook with integrated Intel graphics card. The machine only boots in a low-graphics mode. I detected the following error message in the logs:
(EE) intel(0): No kernel modesetting driver detected
I used i915,modeset=0 as a kernel option but I am no longer using. The xorg.config file I am using is

The problem apparently is in the Intel graphics driver.
Meanwhile I'm using the vesa driver, I had to edit the /etc/default/grub file:
## Original: LINUX_DEFAULT= "quiet splash" LINUX_DEFAULT= "quiet nomodeset xforcevesa acpi_osi=Linux"
## GRUB_CMDLINE_
## Now:
GRUB_CMDLINE_
I'm not sure of the effect of
acpi_osi=Linux
but I couldn't even boot without nomodeset and xforcevesa options.
