Public bug reported:
I did a fresh install of Kubuntu 11.04 (alternate) on my Dell Inspiron
1525. I use whole-disk encryption. On boot-up, I get "Fehler: no video
mode activated" before the encryption password dialog, but the system
boots properly. Sometimes, however, Kubuntu freezes shortly after log-
in, and I have to force a shutdown (no reactions to key strokes). When
this happens, the freeze occurs earlier and earlier each time, until it
happens right when entering the encryption password. After forcing a
reboot again, I see the GRUB menu instead of the aforementioned error
message. Booting from there sometimes does the trick for a few days,
reverting back to the error message on boot-up, but works fine for a
couple of days. Then the entire process starts over. I performed an MD5
check on the install CD and a memtest from GRUB, everything seems to be
in order.
The only other thing that I noticed is that a US keymap is used during
booting and log-in, although I explicitely set it to German during
install. The GRUB menu has entries like "Eintr?ge" instead of
"Einträge", so perhaps this has something to do with a wrong/conflicting
keymap?
