No user/password boxes on login screen after updates today (June 30, 2012)
- by Tony
Just installed today's batch of updates, including new kernel 3.2.0-26 and rebooted. Now the screen just has a logo in the middle and "Ubuntu 12.04 LTS" in bottom left corner, but no box to choose which user to log in as, or to enter a password. CTRL-ALT-F1 gets me to a "login:" prompt, and I can log in - but I have no idea what to look at to find out what is wrong, or to fix this.
Tried older kernels and recovery mode for current kernel - no joy, still no way to log into the graphics console.
