Everything seemed to go well, system booted into 12.04, albeit very slowly. Was able to login no problem. Then shutdown. On next reboot ran into problem where system hangs at login. Get to splash screen with request for user password and have mouse control at that point, but when I enter my password the system stops responding. Ultimately I have to force a shutdown with the power button. The behavior is somewhat erratic in that sometimes the password request disappears along with the banner at top, other times it does not. Ocassionally I can succesfully login, after severl tries over the course of a hafl hour or more. Seems to be just happenstance. Have noticed a few things. First time after I upgraded and loggen in there was a login sound. Now the sound is muted, every time. My GRUB default kernel is 3.2.0-31. If I use GRUB I can usually login using the next kernel down the list, 2.6.32-43. I also have kernal 3.2.0-32 on the machine, but it does not show up in GRUB. I can't explain why not I can send along whatever log files you want, just need to know where to find them ... and succesfully login.
