It hangs there for ages, no matter how long I leave it. I've had this twice and the first time I reinstalled. Both happened after restarting after installing NVIDIA drivers (ensuring that the installation finished first)

You need to install proprietary Nvidia drivers. Run in terminal

sudo apt-get install nvidia-346

and reboot.
