I am the one that originally posted this bug, and today I installed the final release. It did fine on install, and the desktop come up. As I do with all ubuntu distros, the first thing I did was to install the recommended driver for my nvidia video card, which is now the 180, before it was 177. After rebooting, I got the same pale blue screen, and no desktop. I would like to give you the files you want to look at, but I am not well versed with the command line, and with no desktop, it seems impossible to me to send them. You see, not all of us can do all the things that seem so simple you folks that are so fimliar with the command line. Sorry I can't be of more help, but I have installed and removed at least 20, or more, distros between to pc's, and I have never had this happen. I have to believe there are more than just two of us with this experiance, but many like myself, may not even know how to post the required information for a bug report, and may just uninstall the os, and move on. I don't like to even complain, as I fully realize that this as most all Linux distributions are free of charge, and cost me no more than a very small amount of time, most especially when compared to the amout of time invested by the developers. I always try and remember this when mentioning any problems. Maybe some others need to think of this before complaining about something that cost nothing.
