I think I've got quite the same problem. A detailed description can be found here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=889470
As far as I can see I am able to login at the GUI, because when I enter the username and the password at the black screen I can see HDD activity. Disabling usplash has no effect either. Ubuntu 8.04 is running on the server. Output of sudo lspci -nnvv > lspci-nnvv.txt is attatched. ** Attachment added: "lspci-nnvv.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/16926129/lspci-nnvv.txt -- black screen at boot Ubuntu 8.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/231292 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
