Gosh.... I have to press the 2 key in my password and I have to login always twice... Also for me this is the closest description of the behaviour I have managed to find.
Environment: Ubuntu lucid, NVIDIA OR NV drivers. Signs: Screen shows "distorted" pixels on top left. IF I see a non perfect screen (some key sequence seems to be sent to terminal) and I press the key "2", the X server restarts. No strange signs on logs (ending on request). Second time I always get a perfect gdm login screen and I can login successfully. Never happens again, even if I logout and login again. SEEMS some spurious characters coming out from startup are pushed to tty7, and "request" a gdm restart AFTER the key "2" pression. This is mostly an annoyance for me, but for sure can hide something more serious. -- Logged out when typing 2 or @ https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/522554 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server 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
