This is what I did again the command line system after logging in: 1. I edited the file /etc/default/grub: $ sudo nano /etc/default/grub in this line: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="drm.debug=6 quiet splash -- vga=792" 2. Executed $ sudo update-grub. Reboot. 3. On Grub menu I selected Ubuntu without editing the command line: no splash, then blank screen. Reboot. 4. On Grub menu I selected Ubuntu editing the command line for adding nomodeset: linux /vmlinuz-3.8.0-16-generic root= ..... ro nomodeset quiet splash -- vga=792 $vt_handoff Then Splash screen, command line system. Logged in. 5. Executed $ mesg > file_on_usb_flash_drive. 6. Executed $ sudo startx. 7. XOrg Fatal error. See XOrg.0.log for details. However, this time I get this additional error on the console screen: Xauth: timeout in locking authority file /home/ederandresan/.Xauthority Still, command line system. No graphical system.

My HP laptop comes con Windows 8 preinstalled with UEFI and in order to install Ubuntu 13.04 Beta 2 I deactivated the secured boot feature of the UEFI. The screen resolution is 1366 x 768, 32 bits. First, the graphical installer didn't show, so I modified the CD BOOT Option Configuration Line using nomodeset and vga=792 (1024x768, 24 bits) ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VESA_BIOS_Extensions#Linux_video_mode_numbers) (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Changing_the_CD_Boot_Option_Configuration_Line) to: BOOT Options ..... nomodeset quiet splash -- vga=792 After, pressing F10 key the graphical install opened and I proceeded with installation, hoping a dual system. Then, I had to fix the dual system using refind (www.rodsbooks.com/refind). I know this dual system is another kind of bug. I'm just telling what I did. Then, the GRUB screen shows the options to launch Ubuntu 13.04 and Windows 8. If I select Ubuntu, the screen becomes blank again. I modified the boot options using nomodeset and vga=792: linux /vmlinux-3.8.0-16-generic ..... nomodeset quiet splash $vt_handoff -- vga=792 Which resulted in a command line system. After logging in this command line system I executed this command to activate the graphical system: $sudo startx But the Org video server is unable to run and shows me this log Xorg.0.log (Attachment). I think it is a problem with the xserver-xorg-video-intel package.
