OK, I tried letting it sit there trying to start GDM. Came back after
about ten minutes and it had turned itself off in despair. Before
trying again, I have two questions.
First, what do I add to the boot parameters to get it to start in a CLI
so that I don't have to use the kludge from rescue mode. Second, what
logs do I need to grovel or post to work out what's going on?
(I'm beginning to wonder if my graphics card simply picked this time to
die; it happened to my sister, recently, during an Ubuntu upgrade.)
