May be the same issue as this previouisly reported bug: Bug #824140 If I wait for desktop login but drop to command prompt (ctl-alt-F1) I can login. If I run Lightdm from command [sudo lightdm] prompt the graphical desktop flashes on screen momentarily, then get a screen with a bunch of text that ends with "Checking battery state ..." and system just hangs there. But it is not locked up, can drop back to command prompt. I too have Nvidia video hardware.
Weird thing is if I try often enough I can eventually login through the graphical desktop. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1070655 Title: 12.04 LTS Hangs on login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1070655/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
