Public bug reported:

when starting ubuntu, plymouth briefly shows, then i get a black screen
with a blinking cursor.

strange thing is, i do have a mouse pointer, and lightdm did load. i can
type my username and password blind, and judging by HD activity it does
load the desktop.

still no visual, just a mouse pointer.

i go to the top right, click, and use the arrow keys to go up once,
press enter, and then space. Ubuntu shuts down normally.

a second boot goes through fine.


i thought it might be a grub setting, but can't find anything that does or 
doesn't compromize xorg
