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
