Public bug reported:
At times the system boots in text mode, with the text "[OK]" (and
occasionally some graphics gargabe in an area the size of a few text
characters) on the screen, and X doesn't start. Once, I happened to hear
the drums sound played by the Unity login screen after boot. I am able
to get a shell with Ctrl+Alt+Fn.
I experienced the issue with the kernel version recorded by Apport for
this bug, as well as earlier versions. When it happens, I am able to get
a fully working system, with X and Unity running fine, by just
rebooting.
My PC has an Intel Core i5 CPU 760 @ 2.80GHz × 4 with 8GB of RAM, a
450GB hard disk, and an Nvidia Quadro 400 graphics card. I'm running 64
bit Ubuntu 12.10 with the Nouveau drivers.
