Hi, I hope the move went well. I tried all three kernels you built. I am not sure which logs to look at, but here's what I did: 1. boot up with one of the kernels 2. log in (in gnome) 3. Go to System->Preferences->Display and then all I see is a black screen with half of the cursor to the far right. Everything freezes (keyboard and mouse) and I have to shutdown the computer by cutting the power. Please let me know which logs to look at. Also, I didn't understand the steps to subscribe to the upsteram bug report (I thought I was) Any suggestions? Thanks!
