I have successfully installed Ubuntu 13.10 on my new Asus UX302LG laptop by disabling Secure Boot and running Boot-Repair as recommended elsewhere. Upon booting my machine I can choose from several different versions in Grub, one of which is to boot Windows 8 normally (specifically: Windows 8 UEFI Loader), and another is to boot Ubuntu normally. Booting Windows 8 works fine, but when I try to boot Ubuntu I get the login sound, but a black screen (back light is on however). I have tried to change "quiet splash" to "nomodeset" in the Grub launch script for Ubuntu (as that was necessary in the LiveUSB installation), but that only launches a terminal interface. How can I fix the boot to properly run Ubuntu with a proper X server?
EDIT: Running Ubuntu with failsafex shows that the X server fails when launching extension GLX with the error: No screen found. What does this mean?
