Hi, up to my knowledge, There are two reasons which causes the problem.
1. Not enough disk space. Check your disk space with "$df -h" command. Clear the all files in /tmp folder with "$cd /tmp , $rm -rf *" commands. Try to login now. If this is not your problem then try the next solution. 2. The Graphics card resolution value set to high value but it is not supported by your monitor. you can solve this issue by editing the Display settings file manually. The Display setting file is "/etc/X11/xorg.conf". If the file does not exist edit "/etc/X11/XF86Config" file. Example Screen section below. In the section change the hi lighted Modes line only shown below. Section "Screen" Driver "vga2" Device "Generic VGA" Monitor "COMPAQ 5500" Subsection "Display" Modes "800x600" ViewPort 0 0 EndSubsection EndSection If you log in to the system after changing the line. The resolution will be low. If this is not solving your problem. Just copy and paste the below lines at the end of the 'xorg.conf' file. Then try to log in. ********************************************************************** # The Colour SVGA server Section "Screen" Driver "svga" Device "Generic VGA" #Device "Intel 830" Monitor "COMPAQ 5500" Subsection "Display" Depth 8 #Modes (null) ViewPort 0 0 EndSubsection EndSection # The 16-color VGA server Section "Screen" Driver "vga16" Device "Generic VGA" Monitor "COMPAQ 5500" Subsection "Display" Modes "640x480" "800x600" ViewPort 0 0 EndSubsection EndSection # The Mono server Section "Screen" Driver "vga2" Device "Generic VGA" Monitor "COMPAQ 5500" Subsection "Display" Modes "640x480" "800x600" ViewPort 0 0 EndSubsection EndSection ________________________________ From: பழனி கண்ணன். க <kpalanikan...@gmail.com> To: ilugc@ae.iitm.ac.in Sent: Friday, 17 April, 2009 9:24:15 AM Subject: [Ilugc] Regarding UBUNTU 8.10 installation Hi, We tried to install UBUNTU 8.10, It got installed good manner, when we boot the installed OS, after login using our username and password it stucks.... its not loading properly... moreover, when we use live CD environment for UBUNTU means, its not workin...
