Public bug reported:
On Feisty, after latest update, gdm for some reason won't bring up the login
screen. gdm will launch normally. NVidia logo is displayed (or not with nv
driver), then screen turns black, still in graphic mode and nothing further
happens although I have a mouse pointer that's movable (nothing to click
though). I doubt it's an issue with nvidia and it doesn't look like an error
with xorg (startx will start pure X without errors). There's no error in
Xorg.log, no error in gdm logs, no error in messages or anywhere else I looked
(a hint for where to look might really be helpful).
I already reinstalled gnome,ubuntu desktop, gdm, the nvidia driver and
restricted kernel modules. I also switched to nv driver and back. I tried to
switch to old kernel which didn't seem to change anything (I didn't see any
errors as well).
I don't have any clue where to look for errors and what I could do to
change this behavior - any suggestions welcome.
Cheers
