Dear Dimitrios, and others

I am sorry for not reporting back. I have not seen this problem for
some time now. The problem here was: At the end of the booting (right
before X should be started), the system got off the "graphical bootup"
and I got this message "Checking battery state...". Here, it did not
really hang, but if I hit any key, it just continued to boot and
everything was fine. However, if I did not hit any key it stopped at
this message.

This did not happen at every bootup, but seemingly randomly.

Since I dont see this bug no more, I cannot help any further in giving
a dmesg output. What I can say is that I have Intel graphics, and not
ATI.

Best regards, Mikael
