I have this problem with a fairly 'vanilla' feisty install (not an upgrade)
The loading cursor appears but nothing else. I can login on ctrl+alt+f1, etc I installed XDM and can login fine with that. I didn't make it default If I set GDM to automatic login then that works, but if I kill the xserver I get back to a black screen with cursor and no login prompt I am up to date as of today. This happened to my brother's PC and it makes it useless to him because he can't do things like start XDM... -- Black screen after booting (Login screen doesn't appear) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/95874 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
