Public bug reported:
Attempts to boot a current image of Ubuntu 13.04 result in a black
screen after a period of CD/USB loading activity. The system becomes
unresponsive and doesn't recover until I do a hard reset.
I can get to a console by passing "nomodeset" as a kernel option, but
once at the console (only as a result of x failing to start), I'm
basically stuck.
This is on an ASUS G75-VX with an nVidia GTX670 MX. I have no reason to
believe this card uses Optimus, so I doubt that's the issue.
With only a day left, I'd hate to see six months of missed opportunities
for Ubuntu because what might be a simple configuration change to enable
VESA installations to happen still is missed. At least let people get
installed so that they can try updating!
