fpgahardwareengineer, regarding your providing the results of 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelBoot :
1. Boot the machine. 2. During the BIOS screen, press the shift key and hold it 
down. You should see the GRUB menu after the BIOS loads. 3. Navigate to the 
kernel entry you want to boot, and press 'e'. 4. Then remove the quiet and 
splash keywords (found in the line starting with linux) 5. Starting with Natty 
(Ubuntu 11.04), also remove the parameter vt.handoff=7, and on the line that 
reads set gfxpayload=$linux_gfx_mode, replace with set gfxpayload=text
Press 'Ctrl+x' to boot."

Did anything show on the computer screen that you could take a picture
of with a camera, or perhaps a video via smartphone and attach to this
report?

** Description changed:

- Hi,
- 
- I recently obtained a mainboard called ASUS P5VD1-X.
- This is a little "odd ball" of a mainboard.
- It contains an AGP 8X Slot (AGP 1.5V) and a PCI Express Gen 1 x16 Slot (x16 
connector, x4 link).
- Both AGP and PCI Express are connected to the Northbridge chip, VIA 
Technologies PT880 Ultra.
- PT880 Ultra is one of the last VIA Technologies chipset that supported Intel 
platform.
- A perfect mainboard to do hardware compatibility validation against number of 
cards and Linux.
- I updated the BIOS to the last release version (Revision 0704).
  The problem is, booting will stop after displaying Unity GUI default 
background wallpaper image under Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS 32-bit.
  It won't get to displaying launch bar with icons on the left side of the 
screen or a title bar on the top part of the screen.
- Note that I observed the same exact problem with XFX Radeon HD 5450 512 MB 
DDR3 SDRAM graphics card (AMD Radeon HD 5450, Cedar PRO).
- This bug doesn't seem to occur on Intel, AMD, or NVIDIA chipset-based 
mainboards for some reason.
  
- System Configuration:
+ This is a Ubuntu version regression going from Lucid to Natty.
  
- - Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS 32-bit
- - ASUS P5VD1-X mainboard
-   * BIOS Revision 0704
-   * VIA Technologies PT880 Ultra (Northbridge)
-   * VIA Technologies VT8237R Plus (Southbridge)
- - Intel Pentium D
-   * 2.66 GHz
-   * 533 MHz FSB
- - 512 MB DDR 400 DDR SDRAM
-   * 256 MB DDR 400 DDR SDRAM DIMM X 2 (in dual channel mode)
- -  ATI Technologies Radeon X600 graphics card
-   * RV380
-   * 128 MB DDR SDRAM
-   * PCI Express x16
- - Pioneer DVR-111D PATA DVD-RW drive
- - PS/2 keyboard
- - PS.2 mouse
- 
- Note that because I cannot boot Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS 32-bit, the files attached 
is from Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS 32-bit.
- Other than that, the system configuration is identical.
- Please fix this bug as soon as possible.
