Jay Vosburgh, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. As per http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/desktops-and- all-in-ones/thinkcentre-m-series-desktops/thinkcentre-m70e an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (90KT18A). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything? If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't have to create a new bug report. Once the BIOS is updated, and the information above is provided, then please mark this report Status New. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-90kt18a ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1327466 Title: on login, X goes to blank screen, regression in 14.04 Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Note: this occurs when booting the 14.04 desktop installer ISO as well, not just on the installed system.
