Either this fix isn't complete or I have a similar problem. On my fast hardware (a Clevo W370ET with SSD and a quad core i7) I observe the same effects. Even after updating to latest versions I get the fault. I'm running raring (XUbuntu 13.04).
I observe at 50% of booting a black screen with a blinking cursor and a mousepointer. I can switch to a terminal console and by entering the command "sudo service lightdm restart" I get a running graphical session. Also the workaround at comment #5, inserting a sleep 1 in lightdm.conf does help. But I doesn't like the idea of solving a race condition by inserting some sleep. Especially on a fast booting ssd notebook. Should I open a new bug report or should I continue tis one? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/982889 Title: X trying to start before plymouth has finished using the drm driver To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/982889/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
