Maybe the PCI Card has failed.
Can you confirm that you now have wifi with the USB adapter?
There must be a hardware switch, keyboard combination or BIOS setting to fix this, rather than a problem in Ubuntu, as
Check the laptop's manual (or look online). Maybe you could flick the...
You could also check BIOS settings to see if it has been disabled there.
Check that you didn't inadvertently press a key combination that turned wifi off (for example, on my Lenovo G550, <Fn><F5> turns wifif off) - look in the laptop's manual or explore online for the...
You're welcome.
It's possible that the swap partition is not active, or not listed in fstab to automount on boot.
We need to check various system files and settings:
In terminal, run the following:
sudo...
That's because you cannot format, relabel, move, or resize any drive partition that is mounted and being accessed by the system.
So... you need to run from a LiveCD so no drives are mounted, and...
You're welcome!
Do. Not. Do. This. This could break your system as various apps have settings/configuration files and folders in the /home directory, which usually begin with the dot.
The above is the...
You're welcome.
Could well be right. Don't worry, updates will come as and when needed.
OK. So now the only errors relate to the server from which Synaptic is attempting to download the package information.
If you have an internet connection, you have 2 options:
1. Wait. The server...
Uncheck the two maintainer-package lines and the two elegant-gnome lines
OK. you need to have sudo privileges to edit and remove these files.
For the sources.list file, in terminal run:
gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
Enter your password in the authentication...
It seems the error lies with the post-installation script: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/halevt/+bug/746949
Workaround is to, in terminal, run:

In the first file, /etc/apt/sources.list, you need to remove:

We need to see your sources lists, as it is very possible they are incorrect.
These are located at:
/etc/apt/sources.list - the main list
and any .list files listed in /etc/apt/sources.list.d
Just realised: print screen won't work while a password authentication box is open.
Another thought: are you using an on-screen keyboard perhaps?
A normal user should be able to enter passwords in the authentication dialog. As the OP stated, doing so in terminal works OK.
OP: can you provide a screenshot of the authentication dialog box?
One of lists of packages available is corrupt. Each list should be of the form:
Package: aacgain
Version: 1.8-0.0medibuntu1.1

The .iso file you have is for XBMC Live - to be run from a CD/USB stick or to be installed as a standalone system for an HTPC, for example.
I assume from your post, and those on the XBMC forum,...
Brilliant! You're welcome. Big thanks to QLee also for pointing out that the initramfs needed to be updated.
I believe that the hibernate and uswsusp applications are mainly for older systems....
OK.
We have 2 options available.
You can keep uswsusp installed, but change the /etc/uswsusp.conf file to use a disk identified by its UUID:
Change
resume device = /dev/sda6
Click the button that says "Extract" and choose the folder you want. You can even create a new folder if you need to.
Thank you.
The resume file is telling the system to resume from UUID=e876c000-8276-4ce1-b7a2-cb0a973e33c8 and the uswsusp.conf file says to use /dev/sda6. These are the same partitions, but the...
