Public bug reported:

I'm getting messages instead of Plymouth. When I drop to the shell this
is what I get:


[   24.082115] vboxdrv: Warning: 2.6.31 Kernel detected most likely the 
hardware performance
[   24.082117] vboxdrv: counter framework which can generate NMIs is active. 
You have to prevent
[   24.082119] vboxdrv: the usage of hardware performance counters by
[   24.082121] vboxdrv:   echo 2  >  /proc/sys/kernel/perf_counter_paranoid

What i find very weird is the 2.6.31 kernel detection.

This bug could be tied to the a GPU driver related bug that has been
annoying me since I installed (via usb) Lucid on this computer. When the
system boots the GDM never loads so I have to drop to the shell with
ctrl+alt+F1 wait for a few seconds until the computer loads the  GDM,
then ctrl+alt+F7 (sometimes F8) to see the GDM, when I enter the
password, drop to the shell once more and wait for the desktop to load
and once again, ctrl+alt+F7 or F8. If I don't do this after selecting my
name on the GDM the desktop will load partially and the cursor flashes,
I get black borders around the notifications and nothing else loads. The
notification that pops up says:" Could not switch monitor configuration
- could not set the configuration for CRTC 64. When I recover the PC
from sleep it happens and the notification pops up like crazy for
minutes and the cursor flashes. This also happens when viewing videos on
Totem or any other player. Viewing videos on the internet works well
though.
