This bug affects my Macbook2,1 in the same way. Tried both upgrading from karmic and clean installation with the same result. The system is not frozen; I can for example change screen brightness and see the backlight change.
I noticed that if I plugin an external monitor and then press the monitor switch key on the keyboard (F7), the external monitor shows the correct image, when in mirroring mode. The internal monitor stays black, though. -- [Lucid] Blank Screen after login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/531556 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
