Public bug reported: This is happening on Toshiba Tecra M5 and Tecra M10 laptops.
Started with a fresh install of Karmic, which works normally. Did an upgrade to Lucid. Upon booting into Lucid, the gdm login screen displays. On the M5, this screen has scrambled video, which clears up if I switch to a vt (control-alt-f#) and back. On the M10, it displays normally. When I try to log into the system, the cursor disappears and the system becomes completely unresponsive. Both laptops have NVIDIA discrete graphics. This happens with both the nv and the vesa drivers. It also happens regardless of what session is selected. (GNOME, Failsafe GNOME, xterm.) ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- System freeze when logging into GNOME on fresh Lucid install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/519538 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
