I have been experiencing this periodically on a new Lenovo ThinkPad X201s with Intel graphics. After grub, the screen goes black, but the boot continues to load. Plymouth is not displayed. Following a period of disk I/O, entering the keystrokes Ctrl-Alt-Del <enter> successfully reboots the system. I believe gdm is running, but is not displayed.
If, instead of rebooting, I follow the gdm login sequence of <enter> password <enter>, there is more disk activity indicating the desktop being loaded, just not displayed. -- gdm fails to start https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554023 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
