I am also affected by this problem. After the boot splash, sometimes the screens turns black and stays this way, no switching to TTYs is possible. Rebooting via powerbutton is possible. Most of the time this bug does not happen but only sometimes.
Freshly installed Ubuntu 10.10 with no modifications (related to the boot process) on a Thinkpad X300. If the bug occurs again, I will provide a syslog for further investigation. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/578028 Title: Blank screen on boot _______________________________________________ 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
