** Description changed: After updating my Ubuntu 8.0.4.1 system with all previously offered updates installed to the actually offered kernel 2.6.24-19 and rebooting the system something goes wrong: The system reboots normaly until the login screen is displayed. But the standard sound played as a request to log in is now missing. If I will log in to Gnome desktop Gnome will try to start but will fail before the desktop is displayed. The system will fall back to the login screen. If I will try a second time Gnome will draw the desktop background and also items placed on the desktop, but both the top panel with menus and the bottom panel are missing. As soon as I will press the right mouse button the system either falls back to the login screen or will hang up completely. If I will restart with my old kernel 2.6.24-18 alll works normally as should. + + August 10th Update: + Meanwhile I also tried with kernel 2.6.24.20. + Startup goes normally until login screen. Now the standard sound played as a request to lög in is played as should again. Behaviour in Gnome is same as with 2.6.24.19. I rebooted with 2.6.24.18 and changed Appearance/Visual Effects to None. After rebooting with 2.6.24.20 Gnome started normally, but as soon as I tried to set Appearance/Visual Effects to Normal or Extra Gnome hangs again as before. So the problem seems to track down to a graphics problem, maybe caused by the ATI driver of my Radeon Mobility 9700 card.
