[Bug 507979] [NEW] Blank screen on startup, after 15 Jan 2010 updates

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Currently, before login screen appears, my display turns blank (black). I can connect to machine via NX client session only.
This problem appeared right after I was asked to reboot after upgrade - the contents of upgrade were these:
Commit Log for Fri Jan 15 13:03:30 2010

Upgraded the following packages:
gnome-screensaver (2.28.0-0ubuntu3.2) to 2.28.0-0ubuntu3.3
landscape-common (1.3.2.4-0ubuntu0.9.10.0) to 1.4.0-0ubuntu0.9.10.0
libssl0.9.8 (0.9.8g-16ubuntu3) to 0.9.8g-16ubuntu3.1
openssl (0.9.8g-16ubuntu3) to 0.9.8g-16ubuntu3.1
rhythmbox (0.12.5-0ubuntu5) to 0.12.5-0ubuntu5.1

transmission-common (1.75-0ubuntu2) to 1.75-0ubuntu2.2
transmission-gtk (1.75-0ubuntu2) to 1.75-0ubuntu2.2

Since this is a fresh regression, I file a new bug even though it may
look like something previously reported (did not find exact match though
- all defects are too old).
