Bug Description

i updated my KUBUNTU to 9.04 beta from 8.10. now i can't see the login screen. after the kubuntu loading page, with the graphical bar is done, i am getting some random colors on my screen. it flickers twice and stays like that.

i tried repairing the packages from debug boot. but it didn't help.

Mine is Dell 1505 laptop with Nvidea graphic card.

update : i did a clean install of 9.04 beta. it is working fine.

In my case, an upgrade to the RC from regular Ubuntu brought the same results. Mine is a Dell Latitude D610 with ati drivers.

goto shell and see what u have in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. check if u can fix it.

if not try replacing it with

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier "Configured Monitor"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Default Screen"
        Monitor "Configured Monitor"
        Device "Configured Video Device"
EndSection

Section "Device"
        Identifier "Configured Video Device"
EndSection

Section "ServerFlags"
        Option "DontZap" "True"
EndSection
