After looking into the logs and so on, this problem has been fixed a few
versions of X ago. You attempted an installation with X ubuntu8 and this
problem was fixed in ubuntu11 or so.. we now up to ubuntu15. It would be
very nice if you can either test a fresh installation or use the "Second
call for X testing" instruction to perform a new "autodetect" session.

Be sure to use the latest tools version (like xresprobe 0.4.4 and so
on...)

Thanks
