Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I am currently running Ubuntu 10.10 within a virtual machine environment
on my Mac Mini using VMWare Fusion.

When I boot into Ubuntu 10.10 I notice that my wallpaper appears tiled
until it finally loads my Gnome desktop when the wallpaper appears as
normal. Is this normal behaviour or a bug?

Here are the specs of my Machine: Macmini 3,1 (model), 2 Ghz Intel Core
2 Duo, 3 GB Ram (3 MB L2 Cache), NVIDIA GeForce 9400 w/256 MB, Fujitsu
SATA HDD 120.03 GB. I am using VMWare Fusion 3.1.1 (282344) and
allocated about 8 or 9 GB for my Ubuntu install.

I originally posted this as a question here:

It was suggested I try this workaround:

resolution-plymouth-virtual-terminal-for-atinvidia-cards-with-
proprietaryrestricted-driver/

However the workaround suggested did not fix my problem.
