2.6.36-7 is broken too. I confirm that the system is not dead because I can ssh into it. Let me know which useful information I can collect while the system is in this state.
** Summary changed: - [STAGING] X doesn't start with 2.6.37-6 + [STAGING] X doesn't start with 2.6.37-6+ ** Description changed: Last known good version: 2.6.37-5 + Broken with 2.6.37-6, 2.6.37-7 Steps to reproduce: Boot with 2.6.37-6 The system boots correctly but X doesn't start. The screen changes from 'Aubergine' to completely 'black' when switching from plymouth to gdm. The system doesn't seem completely dead because there is disk activity but the keyboard doesn't respond and I can not switch to a console.
