I recently upgraded to 12.10 (fresh install). I am a facing weird problem:
When I boot, I get a message notifying me of low graphics. For now, I have been switching to console using Alt+F1 and then rebooting.
Upon reboot, I select recovery mode, allow system to boot and then again reboot.
Now I select normal mode and my graphics load smoothly.
Could you please tell me what could be the issue? I have a Dell Inspiron 5230 with Intel 4000 onboard graphics.
It has absolutely nothing to do with the GPU. It's a problem with LightDM and SSDs (or some other "abnormally fast" piece of hardware, Nvidia cards cause the same issue)
Try adding
respawn
below
stop on runlevel
In /etc/init/lightdm.conf
Often times, if you run into this error, you can hit
[Ctrl] + [Alt] + [5] to enter a terminal. Login and try
sudo lightdm start
If that doesn't yield anything try
sudo service lightdm restart
As a side note, my SATAIII SSD was connected to the SATAII port on my logic board when I ran into this issue. Verify that your main SSD is on the correct port before you try anything.
