[Bug 584167] Re: graphics broken during boot after upgrade to lucid 64bit

 

** Description changed:

  After upgrading to 10.04 the graphics during boot are corrupted. They
  show up but are unreadable. The rest used to work, but started crashing
  after suspend recently. If I reboot then the garbled graphics show up
  (you can make out the lines and the Ubuntu logo, but you can't read
  anything) and it's stuck there. I'm sure the message means to say
- something important. Last time I pressed F12 by accident  and the login
- appeared.. this seems to work, but the graphics are still corrupted
- during boot.
+ something important. Last time I pressed F12 and some letters by

  Using a thinkpad t61p
  nvidia Quadro FX 570M (rev a1), Subsystem: Lenovo Device 20d9
  NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version current)
  lucid 64bit
  
- ps.: If the periodical fsck came up you also wouldn't be able to make
- anything out, because of the garbled graphics.. (see bootchart)

+ pps.: apparently you have to push F12 and then type log, but this might be completely accidental and something else might also work. So annoying. Had showstopping problems like this after everyone of the last 3 upgrades..
