Meanwhile I have found the same problem on a second machine. Of the 4 Ubuntu machines I have, there are 2 working well and 2 with the this problem. The machines that fail are both laptops and the are fairly old: BIOS dates 2002 and 2004: Pentium 4 (Family 15, model 1 and model 2). There are no other obvious similarities.
The first process trying to access the dbus socket is sshd and that is why the boot sequence 'hangs' at starting sshd. I looks like the dbus-daemon process hangs, it does not react on 'service dbus stop', but if it is killed the boot sequence continues and KDE is started, unfortunately the KDE started does not react on keyboard or mouse events. -- boot sequence stop with repeated "restarting sshd" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/479591 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
