after recent upgrades (I mean latest of yesterday), at start-up before
the login screen, system freezes and I get an arrow on a grey screen.
If I hit Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, system starts fine and any user can log
in the usual screen, but I can see for a short time the no-graphical
login screen with small characters.
Furthermore while at boot I have normal characters (I do not any
graphiccal interface at boot) when I stop the machine characters have
become small
Everything was o.k. until this morning when I re-booted the machine
(no-reboot yesterday after upgrades)
video card is ATI9000, no problem at all with Linux: shall I need to
post any log file (which one?)?
Might check your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file to see which driver is being
used. Might have vesa driver detected and need to change it to ati or
radeon.
I made also this test, with the system that should log to an user
automatically...
It does it, but icons are huge (very large), no scrolling and screen is
in black/white: if I hit Ctrl+Alt+BackSpc I get a normal login screen,
standard dimensions and color is blue.
Is GDM getting crazy?
