Public bug reported: Dear Ubuntu team!
I've recently upgraded from Ubuntu 10.04 to Maverick beta to give it a try. Unfortunately there has been a problem with the booting procedure. Every time the system boots I am being greeted with this screen with white stripes all over it (http://yfrog.com/n5stripessj). The two dark lines appear to be the welcome text hidden behind the bars prompting you for username/password to log into console. I can login fine, but I can't read any text. I am, however, able to access a normal and working console by booting an earlier kernel into recovery mode and dropping to root shell. I've been able to recover the Xorg log file and it appears the X server fails to start due to some screen misconfiguration. Although X doesn't start I'm not sure why I'm even seeing white stripes instead of a normal console. Could there be two bugs here? Please let me know if there is anything else I can try. Greetz! ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: maverick stripes white -- Booting Maverick ends up in white stripes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/644650 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
