I also have a SSD and experience the same problem with black screen and a blinking cursor on startup. If I enter the password for my account then the black screen is displayed I am logged in but I don't see anything then I enter the text.
I thought the fix in #16 did the trick but today I once again experienced the black screen... So it did not solve the problem entirely. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1070150 Title: Intermittent black screen or low graphics mode message To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/lightdm/+bug/1070150/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
