Yesterday i closed my PC properly. Today while booting, Ubuntu hangs after line:

Starting TiMidity++ ALSA midi emulation [OK]

I have these fail messages below, nothing else seems wrong:

Starting load fallback graphics devices [fail]
Stopping automatic crash report generation [fail]

I have tried updating grub menu and cleaning old packages and Linux headers but it did not work.

I can boot my PC in safe graphics mode. That cause me to suspect my graphics settings.

I am using Lenovo SL500 and HP Pavilion DV9087ea. Moving my disk between these two did not work. It hangs at same boot stage in two computers.

Do you have any suggestion to inspect problem?

Lenovo graphics card:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G98 [GeForce 9300M GS] (rev a1)

HP graphics card:
nVidia GeForce 7600 Go

  • Please tell your graphic video card by tipying in a terminal: lspci | grep -i vga

Try using this tutorial: http://lkubuntu.wordpress.com/2011/08/30/quick-and-easy-way-to-fix-x11-issues/
After that, if it works, use this Terminal command:

sudo apt-get install nvidia-current

And then reboot.

  • @nazar_art Yes, I wrote it =P I know it says sudo service XYZ stop, but I don't see where it says sudo stop or stop as a command... you may have written it wrong on the TTY (just print it or something like that, and then run it XD)
