[Bug 1373968] [NEW] GUI does not work after update

 

Public bug reported:

After logging into PC today and running the software updater, various
system updates were downloaded. I was promped to restart, which I did.
At reboot, the system would get as far as displaying the login screen.
After I entered my password, the system appears to hang, with no disk
activity. I have a dual monitor system, but only the left monitor is
active, in that it displays a purple Ubuntu splash screen, without the
login box. I have tried restarting a number of times, but the result is
always the same. I can log in by using the advanced options and drop
into the root console.

I am using Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS.
uname -a reports 3.11.0-20-generic #34-Ubuntu SMP Tue Apr 1 20:40:25 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
