[Bug 552481] Re: Login screen doesn't appear

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
  
  When the machine boots, the splash screen appears as normal. The display
  then goes black, except for the mouse pointer.
  
  The login 'drum beat' sound plays and the monitor backlight 
  turns off and back on again. This cycle then repeats several times until machine hangs completely. Sometimes the display shows two flickering mouse pointers rather than one.
  
  However, I can login to the machine by booting into recovery mode,
  choosing 'resume normal boot' option, then Ctrl+Alt+F1 to bring up a
  login prompt. After logging in, 'startx' displays the desktop, although
  graphics performance is sluggish.
  
  
  This may be related to bug #446641, as some of the bios and mobo details
  are the same (HP machine, Gamila/Giovani/Neon series mobo, v.3.26 bios),
  with same issue of /dev/dri/card0 not being created.
  
  Also of possible relevance is the message “ACPI Error: A valid RSDP was
  not found”, although this is an ACPI-capable machine.
  
  When booting from the LiveCD, the desktop appears correctly, although
  the splash screen is text-based.
