You have been subscribed to a public bug:
Following an upgrade from 18.04 to 20.04 when I boot, X windows comes to
a point where I get a white background with a bunch of colored dots.
Nothing progresses from there.
I can boot successfully by pressing escape after booting, going to
advanced options, booting to 5.4.0-29 recovery mode. When that menu
appears, I select "root". I press Enter for maintenance.
When the root prompt appears I immediately type EXIT to return to the
menu and then RESUME followed by OK.
The system then starts the desktop properly.
I would be happy to provide boot logs and/or Xorg.0.logs if desired. It
appears to me that there are out of memory errors occurring along with
some addressing issues.
I am on an HP EliteBook 8570w laptop 15.6 G memory.
