Bug Description
Ubuntu version: Karmic Alpha
GDM isn't starting, when ubuntu is booted it stay on a black screen forever with keyboard, mouse don't working, only acpi shutdown works.
I booted in security mode, without the options "vga=768 quiet", to get some logs. First step i tried to start gdm (gdm1.txt). As it's returned a dbus error, i runned "/etc/init.d/dbus reload", and tried again (gdm2.txt). After that i reconfigured some packages with dpkg-reconfigure, as PolicyKit, ConsoleKit, and other things that I don't renember, but at all gdm problem stayed the same.

To post a comment you must log in.
had the same error as in gdm1.txt. After installing the latest karmic alpha (6) (probably because of upstart) i couldn't manage to load gdm.
However changing grub load command i've managed to load it properly. Changing "ro" (readonly) to "rw" in the boot commands once worked for me.
After booting properly, i didn't have any need to change the boot command again. "ro" (readonly) option just works now.
