** Description changed:

  Systems with Intel HD graphics are intermittently booting to a message
- about low graphics mode but a graphical display never loads.  The only
- workaround is to log in via CTRL+ALT+F1 and reboot the system until the
- display loads properly.  This may take several reboots.
+ about low graphics mode but a graphical login display never loads.
  
  Multiple users are affected here:

- Note: I am uncertain if this is a kernel bug or a xorg bug but since
- this seems to only affect systems with Intel HD graphics I figured it
- was a kernel bug.
+ Update - 10.26.12
+ There are currently two known workarounds to this issue:
+ 1) Log in via CTRL+ALT+F1 and issue command "sudo service lightdm restart"
+ 2) Install and use GDM instead of lightdm
+ 
+ Considering the above this *may* be a lightdm bug.
