Sorry, it seems I need to collect a bit more information from testers to really see whether we're making progress here. If you're testing the fix from comment 52, please do the following:
- make sure you have the plymouth package installed (sudo apt-get install plymouth) - copy the plymouth-splash.conf to /etc/init (sudo cp plymouth-splash.conf /etc/init/plymouth-splash.conf) - reboot, to test. Then in your report, please provide all the following information: - did you see an Ubuntu logo at boot? - if so did it disappear before the spinning X cursor appeared? - if you don't see an Ubuntu logo, do you see a blue and white bar at the bottom of your screen? - show the output of 'cat /proc/fb' - show the output of 'ps aw | grep X.*vt' - if you have nvidia video hardware, please mention if you're using nouveau or the binary driver. - does the problem with X freezing persist for you? - if you *don't* see the Ubuntu logo at boot, or if it disappeared before the X cursor appeared, and X does not freeze for you, is this reproducible across multiple reboots or do you still sometimes hit the freeze? Since the fixed plymouth-splash.conf does seem to improve things for some (but not all) users, and I have a theory why this should be, I'm going to go ahead with uploading that change. I will still need to collect the above information in order to figure out the remaining problems. -- Pressing <Enter> causes X to freeze https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/516412 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
