I have the same problem here: after the splash screen I get a blank screen.
If I press any key, I get into the console on VT1, with a login prompt... funny: whatever username I type here, the system says "login incorrect" without prompting for the password... then it gives the login prompt again and this times lets me in on the console... Alternatively, if while on the blank screen I switch to VT7, I get the kdm greeting... The weird thing is that my machine (a dell D820 with intel 945 graphics) has never had this problem. Problem appeared a few days ago, so I believe that some package update has broken something. -- edgy eft usplash does not switch to kdm https://launchpad.net/bugs/63541 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
