Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xorg
I booted a LiveUSB of the current natty daily ISO. It got to the screen where it asks whether I want to Try or Install Ubuntu. I selected "Try". It switched back to the console, then loaded xorg with a cursor in the center of the screen and a black background and stopped. I could move the cursor around with my mouse, but Ctrl-Alt-F1 didn't do anything. I eventually did Alt-Sysrq-R and Alt-Sysrq-K to restart xorg, logged in on gdm, and got to a normal desktop.
