[Bug 1271082] Re: Ubuntu GNOME Saucy -> Trusty upgrade ends in a black screen

[Erick Brunzell]

@ Brian,

That install had been heavily modified, most specifically adding 'gnome-
session-flashback' and switching to 'lightdm' from 'gdm'. And the
upgrade actually turned out OK other than having to perform a hard reset
and running "apt-get -f install" to see what needed to be removed.

I'm almost tempted to call this invalid, but at the very least it should
be a low priority .......... or maybe marked to expire if no one
confirms????

Title:
  Ubuntu GNOME Saucy -> Trusty upgrade ends in a black screen

Status in “ubuntu-release-upgrader” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Just testing Ubuntu GNOME upgrades via "update-manager -d -c" and all
  seemed to go fairly well but when I'd expect to be asked to remove
  packages I got a black screen with a blinking cursor. I finally did a
  hard reset and all seems well but I see this at the end of the
  main.log:

  I suspect the entire log is attached.
