Package: slim
Version: 1.3.6-4
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

from time to time (maybe once in three to five startups) I end up seeing 
only a black screen when my PC has started up. Although I can't see a 
thing, slim is running since I am able to log in by just typing my 
credentials. Then I see the hard disk indicators flashing. If I switch 
to a virtual console (e.g. by Ctrl-Alt-F1) and back (to VT2) then I see 
my desktop environment as expected.

This bug is annoying for the average user, because one can think that 
the PC is unusable or has crashed.

Thanks!
Christof
