Hi,
I have a dual boot Winxp/Ubuntu for a long time. Yesterday I upgraded to 9.10 and it looked and worked ok, but since then, while booting, the system pauses for about 2 minutes at the Intel splashscreen - that is way at the beginning, between the graphic card and the rest of the boot messages and before the grub menu. When it finally continues booting I got no error messages so far - and see no problems both on win and ubuntu. What can that be? Where can I start looking?
Thank you!!
