Re: [Bug 113067] Re: gdm hangs before login
Hi, It's a very old problem. I have upgraded the same machine to latest version of Ubuntu, and I don't see following errors. Thanks for all your support.

Re: [Bug 113067] Re: gdm hangs before login
As far as I can remember, it was problem with nvidia drivers. 7.10 used to work fine, but upgrading to 8.04 messed up the entire install. Sorry, I got fed up and removed ubuntu. Will try again with 9.04 when I get time. -- Not having enough fun? http://www.binscorner.com On Mon, Apr 27, 2009 at 7:51 PM, Sebastien Bacher seb...@ubuntu.com wrote: does anybody still get the issue in jaunty and could summarize how to trigger the bug? -- gdm hangs before login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/113067 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug.

[Bug 113067] Re: gdm hangs before login
On my machine, it definitely looks like a problem with NVidia Drivers. I installed 8.04. The moment I said yes to restricted drivers, it stopped booting. If I remove restricted drivers, then it boots fine with default 800x600 resolution. It's repeatable. I also tried using nvidia-glx-new, as suggested in a forum, but that doesn't help either. -- gdm hangs before login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/113067 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
