I've the same problem after my laptop died from a empty battery.
    Dell Latittude C840
    Kunbuntu 7.10

After the KUNBUNTU display with moving horizontal bar, text is displayed "Starting K Display manager" as normal.
Also as normal services are started. Before teh problem, after the text message "Starting Common Unix Printing Ssytem Cupsd OK" the KDE graphical login sceen was showed.
Now after a few seconds, and after first going blank, the text messages continue with "Starting powernowd OK".
this end with:
  Starting up....
  Loading, please wait ...
  kinit: name_to_dev_t(/dev/disk/by-uuid/2524f0f6-424d-418f-bdd1-e59bd659e776+ = sda5(8,5)
  kinit: trying to resume from /dev/_the_same_path_as_above
  kinit: no resume image, doing normal boot ...
login prompt

I've read all previous messages and tried all proposed solutions. I still have the problem.

sudo fdisk -l | grep swap ---> This list shows that sda5 is my swap
sudo vol_id -u /dev/.... ---> This replies the 2524......776 number.
The UUID line in this file:"/etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume" is the same number as in the reported.line commands above.
sudo update-initramfs -u
reboot --> problem stays.

changing the last '0' by a '2 in the UUID line in /etc/fstab then
sudo update-initramfs -u
reboot --> problem stays

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop is doing a lot of stuff but at the end a reboot keeps the problem.

/etc/X11/xorg.conf file has for the display different screen resolution settings.
The lines in the /etc/usplash.conf have the numbers for X and Y that fit one of the settings from teh xorg.conf file.
Changing one or both doesn't do anything after reboot.

Has somebody some exta hints to try?

Can somebody mail (<email address hidden>) me his /etc/X11/xorg.conf file for comparing with mine?
   In this file on my PC two entries exist: Monitor and Screen.
   Both have different settings
   At tthe end of the file both refer to teh same "monitor1"

Kind regards,

Marc
