Comment 45 for bug 1533221

The login screen shows ok. But when I type the password and hit enter, the cursor freezes. I can't even switch to a console login at that point. I got the logs by going straight to a console login instead of attempting to login normally.

When trying to install wily direct from a USB stick, I also got freezes as it was trying to display the install dialog. But the vivid install worked (as it was using a 3.9 kernel maybe?). But after install I still had to install the nvidia drivers from the console to get X working properly I think. And from there I could upgrade to wily. And from there I installed the 4.4.0 kernel to get wireless networking happy.

I don't understand why the login screen can show and then not the desktop.
