[Bug 1164753] Re: boots to a black screen with a cursor
it happens to me too. I have arch linux, installed just a few days ago, so everything is up to date, and I'm using gtk3 greeter. I got lightdm trough lightdm-bzr package, so it is compiled directly from the development trunk. What's strange is that sometimes it loads right, and sometimes i get a black screen with just the cursor, I have to blindly type the password and press enter. Then my desktop environment loads and everything is ok. The black screen happens very often, about 50% of the time, while for the remaining 50% it displays correctly. What's very strange is that seems to be very random. I use it on an old laptop, it has an old intel gma900 graphic chip, using xfree86 intel driver. dunno if matters though, xfce and awesome are fine, so I don't think the problem is related to X. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1164753 Title: boots to a black screen with a cursor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1164753/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This has started happening to me since I upgraded to raring. I have a suspicion that it's linked to the power status, as it seems to happen only when my laptop is not plugged into the mains, though I can't say with any certainty. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1164753 Title: boots to a black screen with a cursor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1164753/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Can you get /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log after a failed boot but before you restart lightdm?

[Bug 1164753] Re: boots to a black screen with a cursor
Here is the log file. The first time I restarted everything worked as expected. The second time I got the blank screen, so it seems like a race condition somewhere. ** Attachment added: lightdm.log https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1164753/+attachment/3622192/+files/lightdm.log ** Changed in: lightdm (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1164753 Title: boots to a black screen with a cursor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1164753/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
