Description boombatower 2014-11-04 17:22:46 UTC
I've had this issue for years even while reading blog posts about the various pieces involved being "fixed". I've even replaced the machine so not ultra hardware specific anyway. Not sure where to file something like this as it touches the bootscreen stuff, the login screens, and the face in to X desktop. Feel free to nuke or redirect me to more appropriate locations.

Please attach your xorg log and dmesg output.  Does your grub configuration have gfxpayload=keep in it?  If so, does removing that help?

I don't see gfxpayload payload in there, but pehaps I need to look elsewhere?
