I had a similar problem when I installed Edubuntu 10.04 amd on a PC with AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5200+, 4GiB RAM, 320GB disk and video NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE nForce 430. I do not have a definitive solution (i think the problem is related with xserver-xorg-video-nouveau and the nvidia driver) but: * If you are in tty1 (Console): login and type command: "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart". * Provisional solution: I reinstalled the software (I have a separated partition for /home), and I avoid to use propietary driver, but i do not have full hardware acceleration...
