Re: [Bug 589520] Re: Haven't been able to execute normal gnome login since 10.04 installation; screen blanks then returns to login screen

 

Hi,

There was no existing xorg.conf file in /etc/X11, so I
created one with the following content;

Section
"ServerFlags"
    Option "AIGLX"
"off"
EndSection

After rebooting, I was
successfully automatically logged in (which was the option I chose in my
third attempt to install).  The last bit of the syslog after the
reboot is now

Jun 26 16:09:51 saltcreek kernel: [

Since the problem occurred after 5th last line
and before the firmware load, I'd say this is a successful workaround.

Thank you.

Cheers,
