Bug Description
Binary package hint: friendly-recovery
In 8.04 I could boot into recovery mode, perform administrative tasks, then resume to normal boot (gdm). There is a regression in 10.04 where GDM doesn't run when I select "Resume normal boot". I now have to reboot to get the login screen.
I have tried "telinit 2" from the root shell as well as "sudo telinit 2" after going through the text login. Both do nothing.

are there any error logs you can post to this? try loggin in at the text login, and run "sudo startx" . if you dont have a log file already, that should generate one if it doesnt start the xserver for u.
