A serious problem has just arisen after an update today. I did the update while the system was started, but before logging in (I switched to a text console while the login screen was appearing). Once I logged in, in safe mode, the 2 icons I'd created on the desktop were bouncing up and down, and neither top nor bottom panel showed.
Then I rebooted. The login dialog was bouncing up and down so I could not log in. I was still able to switch to a text console and collect some data. By the way, the screen resolution seemed to have been set properly, but I'm not completely sure about that. I've attached a .tgz archive with Xorg.0.log and the output of 'apt- show-versions'. ** Attachment added: "Xorg.0.log and apt-show-versions output" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-openchrome/+bug/495553/+attachment/1774866/+files/flashingbug.tgz -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-openchrome in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/495553 Title: [K8M800] Maverick 10.10 live-CD login failure, ttyN screens don't work, on Averatec 3280 running Lucid _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
