hangs on during boot-up: "checking battery state"

[jurga170]

during boot-up (xubuntu 12.04):

1. starts from xubuntu GUI front page + text: "checking disk drives for errors"
2. after the check is completed, a black screen + text: "checking battery state: [ok]"; cursor below, no progress.

What's the problem?

Probably doesn't like your video adapter. Google "nomodeset".

Perhaps you could describe your computer?

For me it happened the same thing when installing Nvidia toolkit. The problem was the driver installation got corrupted, so just reinstalling your video card drivers will fix the problem.
