Sorry, no way to get 9.04 logs, as the system doesn't let reach a command line...
But I think I have got something: I have compared the recovery start up with telinit 2 (which fails) and telinit 5 (which works fine), looking at the scripts started in each /etc/rc2.d and /etc/rc5.d. The only difference was the script 'S10powernowd.early' present in /etc/rc2.d and not in /etc/rc5.d, at least before the gdm script was started. So I have tried to delete that link to see, and effectively it works fine. So the problem comes from there. As I don't know what is the object of starting powernowd.early (There is a powernowd start later in the sequence of scripts, in both level 2 and level 5), I can't investigate much more. >From my problem point of view, the thing is solved, but it may have affected more people with similar hardware. Could somebody explain powernowd, and particularly powernowd.early functions? -- Recovery start+telinit 5 is the only way to start correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/372556 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
