Hi, To the original poster, which chipset does the computer/mainboard uses? Can you provide the lspci output?
$ lspci -vvv > lspci.txt Upload lspci.txt to this bug report. I think I have seen a somewhat similar bug here. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1063656 Similar symptoms: Works fine in recovery mode (I assume Unity-2D is running), and not the regular mode. After I log in, the wallpaper is drawn, but nothing happens. Keyboard and mouse cursor are still alive (i.e., Caps Lock LED responds, mouse cursor still moves around the screen). Happens with Radeon X600 (RV380) and Radeon HD 4350 (RV710). Although I have not uploaded the report, same with Radeon HD 5450 as well. AGP version like Radeon 9800 Pro (R350) is not affected.
