Hi Ben. I did the following 1) Rebooted 2) Selected "Ubuntu 9.04, kernel 2.6.28-11-generic (recovery mode)" 3) Selected "Drop to root shell prompt" 4) Entered "init 2"
Result: back to blank (black) desktop, where only the mouse pointer is visible. There doesn't seem to be any "hidden" objects under mouse pointer wherever I put the mouse pointer, so it seems to be a case where the GUI itself doesn't load at all. Performing the above steps, there is a lot of information displayed, and I suspect this is dumped into some log file which might contain useful information as to what failed, but I wouldn't know where to find that log file, or how to read its content. -- No desktop after login, after fresh install of 9.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/381901 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
