[Bug 973473] [NEW] Login Manager only shown in upper half of screen
Public bug reported: When booting 12.04 (with all updates installed), X loads but only covers the upper half of the screen. On the bottom half the console output of the boot process is still visible.

[Bug 899244] Re: GMA500 psb_gfx
Attached output of `sudo lspci -vnvn` on a Dell Inspiron Mini 10. psb_gfx is loaded on boot, but when lightdm first launces, X only covers the top half of the screen, the lower half is still console messages from the boot process. Also the mouse pointer can't escape from the top half. This is resolved by switching on a different terminal and restarting lightdm. ** Attachment added: lspci-inspiron-mini-10.txt https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/899244/+attachment/2843814/+files/lspci-inspiron-mini-10.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/899244 Title: GMA500 psb_gfx To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/899244/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
