After successfully installing 13.04 on my Dell XPS 15z, I restarted the laptop, successfully booting into Ubuntu with no issues.
Restarting after that then gives the 'System is running in low graphics mode' message.
I get this everytime now. Have re-installed with latest build and same issue.
I can only boot in recovery mode
Extra info:
Other dell users seem to be experiencing similar issues: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2115355
I installed and use the parameters mentioned here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport/Machines/Laptops/Dell/XPS/15z
I have an optimus card, which the Nvidia card should be disabled as it does not work
Sometimes when booting in recovery mode it says there are errors on the drive and would I like to fix them, I agree and it fixes them
