Public bug reported: I installed Feisty Herd-2 today. Everything was fine.
Then I did an Internet update. After that, gnome never starts correctly after logging in. The mouse cursor is there, works perfectly, but all I see is a brown background and nothing happening. No startup sound even. I can only Ctrl-Alt-Del out of X. No idea what's causing this; Neither top/ps nor syslog say anything interesting. ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Can't start gnome https://launchpad.net/bugs/79001 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
