Bug Description

I'm using a clean install of Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64bits, downloaded on April 30/2012,
on HP Pavilion DV6458se laptop with NVIDIA Go 6150, 8GB RAM 800MHz, HD160GB.

Drivers I tryed are : the default (Nvidia current) and the the other Nvidia option in the "Drivers" aplication.

Install goes smooth, login screen perfect, but when trying to login Ubuntu 3D the screen goes black with mouse cursor only.
Login into Ubuntu 2D works fine, so the problems lies with 3D option.
Also login into Classic Gnome 3D also fails with the same black screen and mouse cursor.

A while ago I reported a problem with the same laptop during clean instalation of 10.04 LTS 64bits,
I was using VISTA before. I went back to Windows VISTA, which really sucs but works.

Later installed 10.10 64bits and upgraded to 11.04, worked fine.
I don't know why now it has problems again.

Hope you can fix this cause it would be great to use the 3D options and tweaks with MyUnity !

Thanks,

Ed
