Can't get Past Login Screen -Graphics Drivers 12.10
- by mchangun
Newbie Linux user here. I just installed Ubuntu 12.10, dual booting with Windows 8 Preview Release Build 8400 on a Dell Precision 490 workstation with Nvidia Quandro NVS 55/280 PCI graphics card.
I cannot login to Ubuntu - after entering my password and pressing enter, the screen graphics gets garbled for a few seconds, and then the screen goes black showing only the mouse cursor. I suspect it's something to do with my Graphics Card, everything on the GUI login screen feels very sluggish.
I know what I have provided here doesn't give you much information, would appreciate it if I could get some guidance on how to provide more useful logs.
Thank you.
