Bug Description
I've run into this testing both the amd64 and i386 Ubuntu GNOME 20150826.1 images. But it only occurs after selecting Try Ubuntu from the normal boot screen. If you boot the same image and choose try Ubuntu from the advanced boot screen the live DE boots just fine. I've been able to reproduce this behavior on two of three sets of hardware, but not the third.
The two sets of hardware affected are:
AMD Sempron Processor LE-1250 @ 2.2 GHz
nVidia C61 [GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a] (rev a2)
nVidia MCP61 High Definition Audio (rev a2)
nVidia MCP61 Ethernet (rev a2)
2GB DDR2 RAM
Intel Motherboard: DB43LD
Intel Pentium Dual-Core CPU E5300 @ 2.60GHz
Intel Corporation 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
Intel Corporation 82801JD/DO (ICH10 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 02)
00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82567LM-3 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 02)
3GB DDR2 RAM
The set of hardware I've not been able to reproduce this on is:
Intel Atom CPU 230 @ 1.60GHz
Intel 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
Intel N10/ICH 7 Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01)
Realtek RTL8101E/RTL8102E PCI Express Fast Ethernet controller (rev 02)
2GB DDR2 RAM
I'm attaching a picture of the actual screen after freezing - sorry it's kind of blurry, but I'm shaky ATM.
