** Description changed:

  I recently updated to the latest (2.6.35-8-generic) kernel on a Maverick
  system, but rebooting after the update caused Xorg not to start.  I see
  the following messages in dmesg:
  
  [   33.716949] Xorg:1316 conflicting memory types e0000000-e0546000 write-combining<->uncached-minus
  [   33.716954] reserve_memtype failed 0xe0000000-0xe0546000, track write-combining, req write-combining
  [   49.853274] Xorg:1492 conflicting memory types e0000000-e0546000 write-combining<->uncached-minus
  [   49.853279] reserve_memtype failed 0xe0000000-0xe0546000, track write-combining, req write-combining
  
  I also see an error in Xorg.0.log:
  
  [    49.853] (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to allocate primary buffer: out of
  memory.
+ 
+ I tried reverting to the previous kernel, but this doesn't fix the
+ problem.  That makes me think maybe some other update caused the
+ problem, but I can't find anything that looks suspicious in dpkg.log.
