Same problem here, but only on my Laptop (MSI VR201) with intel graphics (x3100). I don't have the "not-working-at-all" problem mentioned by nicobrainless, though.
I can also start by resuming normal boot in recovery mode and then starting the deamons i need from commandline. I do not however see the login screen sometimes as described by Peter Belew on 5th of feb., but the login sound is played. I also find, that the problem usually doesn't occur in the first reboot after an update, but I don't know wether this is just coincidental. Another question to me is - cause Scott J. Remnant wrote it could be an x-server issue - if it could have something to do with intel graphics, as i can't enable visual effects either and was able to do so before installing lucid. Addiotionally the problem doesn't occur on my desktop, which uses nvidia graphics. -- Lucid frequently crashes while starting gdm on Averatec 3280 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/508456 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
