Bug Description

I first installed Luna beta 2 yesterday but when the system finished installing and rebooted X could not load. The error appeared to be related to xauth which complained that the .Xauthority file in my ~ did not exist. This file did exist however; I simply renamed the file and touched a new one in it's place which solved the issue for me. It appears that the original Xauthority file had permissions of read and write for me only and no permissions for my group or anyone else.

Upon successful second boot I noticed that I had the nvidia-experimental-304 driver active.

I installed the system while in live CD mode and chose to install updates. My computer is an i7-930 with an nvidia GTX 680 and 12GB of RAM.
