[Bug 491483] Re: Since failsafe-x was enabled in karmic it starts if gdm is disabled and kdm is used. (low graphics mode error)

[David Benjamin]

This bug also affected single-user mode. While it no longer occurs after
the fix, the script for failsafe-x should be disabled when booting with
kernel option single. It is otherwise extremely ironic that this so-
called failsafe-x has the potential to (and in fact did) cause the real
failsafe boot option to fail.

gdm and kdm currently check for this. A similar check should be added.

Likewise, kdm's init config should get the similar patch, to avoid this
problem from occurring in a possible future kdm-based failsafe X to
complement the one that current depends on gdm.
