After an upgrade to intrepid alpha 4 this still occurs. To recap... When logging out OR clicking XDMCP in the gdmgreeter a blank screen appears with 5 lines of text and a flashing cursor, the text is as follows in Intrepid:
*Starting System Tools Backends *Starting anac(h)ronistic cron anacron *Starting deferred execution scheduler ATD *Starting periodic command scheduler crond *Enabling additional executable binary formats binfmt-support *Checking battery state On logout this disappears after about a second and I successfully arrive at the gdmgreeter. When clicking XDMCP in the greeter on the other hand the system frequently just gets stuck with this text on the screen and I have to turn the computer off and then back on again. -- Black screen hang on XDMCP login. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/228324 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
