Very unlikely either. The dozen or more systems I'm aware of on which
these packages were tested never exhibited such symptoms.
There are a great many things that happen between the grub menu and the
point where one may 'access the desktop'. I won't be able to hold your
hand through learning about those. I suggest you do some basic
troubleshooting on your end, starting with checking system logs and
configuring grub and the kernel not to hide console messages and init
not to start graphics.
When you're at the point where you've captured and analyzed the various
sources of diagnostic output, googled error messages, and are still
stumped, copy the relevant output to a pastebin and ask again here.
That might increase your chances of getting help.
John
