Public bug reported:
I'm on VMware Workstation 8 and 9. Not tested on physical machine.
I'm having this issue since Alpha 1, but I always waited for a fix...
till now.
The first boot is fine (not always), but when I reboot or reset the VM,
the bug appears.
The symptoms are random. Sometimes you get a blinking cursor (_), or a
lonely [ OK ] in the screen, or "Checking battery state... [ OK ]".
Workaround: Login into console (Ctrl+Alt+F1) as root and enter "service
lightdm start" twice. Then, the login screen appears.
