/dev/dri/card0: No such file or directory












1














My Ubuntu 16.04 system boots to X.Org failsafe mode (xinit fails). I cannot find out why. The file /var/log/Xorg.0.log contains the following:



/dev/dri/card0: No such file or directory


PS: My system was working fine until I removed 2 kernel images which were not being used (4.4.0-57 and 4.4.0-59). I use 4.4.0-53. The boot process ends with reached target graphical failsafe runlevel fallback and does not go further.
