Re: [ubuntu-uk] Hmmmm....
this probably isn't useful and I am sorry if it isn't but regarding Jaunty it is reccomended on the website that it isnt installed till ?23rd April? or at least for another month is it still in beta level so can I suggest (I be in the same boat as you, my friend) that you roll back the drives and work on ibex till Jauntys official release.

I guess I would go to the console with Alt-Ctrl-F1, log in there and start looking at log files etc especially those to do with the X server starting up etc. You might try restarting X by hand and see if any errors show up.

Well, you know, the whole purpose of beta releases is for people to actually download them and use them and report problems, so that the bugs are found fixed before release! -- Liam Proven • Profile: http://www.linkedin.com/in/liamproven Email: lpro...@cix.co.uk • GMail/GoogleTalk/Orkut: lpro...@gmail.com Tel: +44 20-8685-0498 • Cell: +44 7939-087884 • Fax: + 44 870-9151419 AOL/AIM/iChat/Yahoo/Skype: liamproven • LiveJournal/Twitter: lproven MSN: lpro...@hotmail.com • ICQ: 73187508 -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
