I have not posted for a while because I was waiting for the release. I have just put the 8.10 release live cd in the drive and started the installer and it has done the same thing. Obviously the installer does not use the gdm, instead just an application in X so I think we can presume the bug is actually in X.
There is still nothing of note in the X logs before the system crashes, and I cannot get at the logs after the display has frozen because there is no way to remotely access the box. -- GDM crashes after restart https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/274630 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
