Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gdm
Ubuntu 10.04 alpha 3, package version 2.29.92-0ubuntu1
Lucid uses the very nice new feature of kernel mode setting, already
setting the video mode correctly during boot time. However, when the
boot is through and gdm takes over, the system freezes (sometimes with
boot messages still visible, sometimes with an incomplete gdm login
screen) until a button is pressed. Then, gdm (or X?) resets the video
mode, as far as I can tell to the same settings as the kernel already
did. The login-screen is only usable after this reset.
This behavior was appropriate when the the bootscreen and gdm use
different video modes, but should not happen when they are same (which
is what we presumably want anyways).
I'm not sure where to file this bug, so feel free to move it to kernel
or X.
