Title:
Ubuntu Lucid - White Screen when X session starts
Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
1) miguel@miguel-desktop:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Release: 10.04
Updated to date
2) Don't know
3) I'm expecting the system to give an X session, but it goes to a white screen.
4) I get a white screen and the woraround I could find is to to the following steps
a) CTRL + ALT + F1
b) Login
c) sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
d) startx
After those 4 steps I can use the system with no other issues
I have Compiz enabled and the video board is an nvidia: 01:00.0 VGA
compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G98 [GeForce 8400 GS] (rev
a1)
Even not sure if related I can recall installing the ppa for Unity ( http://ppa.launchpad.net/canonical-dx-team/une/ubuntu ) for testing purposes
