64-bit 3.8.0-9-generic #18-Ubuntu SMP Thu Feb 28 17:02:06 UTC 2013
Desktop with Intel e8500 cpu, Nvidia GT9500 and default (non-Nvidia) video
driver.
I get this problem frequently following a restart from 12.04.
Pressing the reset button or executing a FULL power shutdown prior to
completion of booting 13.04 will usually eliminate this problem. This
would imply that a hardware state that is properly initialized following
a reset or full power shutdown is NOT being properly initialized during
a warm reboot.
On occasion, I have also had to update/install grub, either from 12.04
or a via fix a broken system from a server CD.

Title:
Intel integrated graphics boots in low graphics mode
Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
After successfully installing 13.04 on my Dell XPS 15z, I restarted
the laptop, successfully booting into Ubuntu with no issues.
Restarting after that then gives the 'System is running in low
graphics mode' message.
I can only boot in recovery mode
UPDATE: In the ubuntu forums thread
(http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2115355), jbicha,
recommended the following which fixed (or worked around) the problem
"Perhaps this is a problem with SNA which has been enabled by default
for raring.
Add (or edit if it already exists) /etc/X11/xorg.conf and I think this
is the code you need:"
Code:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Graphics"
Driver "intel"
Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"
EndSection
Extra info:
This is an repost of bug 1124661 as I submitted that in recovery mode

I have an optimus card, which the Nvidia card should be disabled as it
does not work
