Public bug reported:
Yesterday I had just installed Ubuntu 19.10 and after my third or fourth
reboot it would not start, it just got stuck on the splash screen. I
didn't know what to do, but I still had the USB from which I had
installed Ubuntu, so I plugged it in and booted up from the USB, and
then I pressed the shutdown button, and before it shut down Ubuntu asked
me to remove the installation media and press OK, I did, the laptop shut
down, and now I booted up my laptop as usual, not from the USB, and this
time it did not get stuck on the splash screen. So I left it at that,
but just now, I booted up my laptop,and again it got stuck again, and so
again I did the boot up from the USB, shut down, remove USB, and reboot
as usual from the laptops HDD. Now it works again. This problem seems to
happen on a random basis. I hope this helps to solve this problem.
