Re: [orca-list] System not completely booting because of no screen connected?

[Milton <milton duurzaamdigitaal org>]

Hi,


I met with this today after installing Ubuntu 16.04.2. Until the login 
screen everything went OK, Orca was running and I typed the password for 
loggin in. Then I could not get any further. After I connect the screen 
with a second connector I discovered on the back, everything went well.
