Public bug reported:
I suppose that after the latest update of xserver-xorg on my Ubuntu
12.10, it somehow introduced a bug which stops me from reaching unity.
The screen gets black after successful login, then some console output
appears, then the nvidia logo, and then I am presented with the login
screen again.
I have tried changing the "Driver" to "Vesa" in my /etc/x11/xorg.conf,
but no avail.
This bug is very serious as it renders my ubuntu installation totally
unusable in the current state.
