I’m guessing this is related to gdm since "startx" works but normal booting does not.
When disabling xplash in /etc/gdm/Init/Default i get: black screen --> login screen background --> black screen --> restart When also adding automatic login in /etc/gdm/gdm.schemas i get: black screen --> loading screen (presession?) --> restart When also disabling the presession xsplash in /etc/gdm/PreSession/Default i get: black screen --> cursor --> restart examples above are what I see after the kernel messages when booting using only "ro" kernel option. /var/log/dmesg, /var/log/udev, /var/log/Xorg.0.log, and .xsession_errors are all 0 in size afterwards. what to do? ** Package changed: upstart (Ubuntu) => gdm (Ubuntu) -- karmic release candidate fails to boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/458676 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
