Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gdm
Sometimes (more or less once every 3 boots, but sometimes keeps happening for
few times in a row) the GDM service doesn't start and Ubuntu displays the text
mode login prompt.
When this happens the splash screen doesn't appears, but if I press
CTRL+ALT+DELETE then the splash screen that indicates the shutdown appears.
When the text mode login prompt appears I can login and I can launch GDM
with "sudo service gdm start", and the service starts normally and the
graphic login screen is shown.
The problem is new to 10.04 since with 9.10 the gdm service started
correctly every time.
** Affects: gdm (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
