2011-09-03 19:51:27 Kenny Strawn summary Unity won't start in 11.10 Beta with an Intel graphics card Unity won't start in 11.10 Beta: Trying to minimize Unity Dash to make it fit on a 1024x600 screen makes Unity freeze and then, after I log out by killing X, never start again
2011-09-03 19:53:54 Kenny Strawn description Upon logging in to an 11.10 installation on a desktop with an Intel integrated graphics card after the Beta update, I get a black screen and end up having to use Unity 2D instead of the Compiz-based Unity.
