Just a follow-up - Thank you to all of you for your help.

My files are backed up. My Grub working like a champ, and I've got 14.04LTS installed on my Laptop with Xubuntu's desktop purring along.

Thank you for the advice! Once I back up my files, I will do that - Bless you all for your help!!

I am one VERY happy camper right now!

LOL It ate my entire post - Thank you!! That was exactly what was needed!! I was able to use the SHIFT key to get into the Grub Menu - never even THOUGHT of that!...

I'd love to back up my files first. Any idea how to do that when I cannot use the keyboard or mouse?
As I said, once it boots, and I log in, the keyboard no longer functions. I can move the mouse,...

Is there a way to install Ubuntu 12.X on top of a non-responsive 10.04 LTS desktop that was broken due to an update that was released?

Eh! It was no big deal to reinstall and keep it clean - with backups staged along the way just in case. LOL Shoulda done that in the first place -banging head against desk-


Um...probably because...

I just figured rather than trying to patch it, I'd reinstall it. My data is safe on backups. Just a bit of time and no holes waiting to ambush me later.

Thank you for your very kind offer to...

Drive and contents were fine.

The problem was that Ubuntu 12.04 wouldn't read the drive it created.

Windows 7 had no problem reading the drive and the files were recovered. Ubuntu remains...

Well, I'm giving up on Ubuntu and going back to Windows 7.

I'll mark the thread 'SOLVED' as my solution is to abandon the Ubuntu 12+ series entirely. I'll still use Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS in a VMware...

Thank you for the thought! I tried it and it resulted in the same output..:(

Perhaps I'll just break down an reinstall everything again. It always seems to be about 3/4 of the way through the...

I have the NTFS partition so that I can mount it in a Windows 7 virtual machine - not yet installed...BOY am I regretting that decision.

Looks like I'm going to have to get creative on attaching...

While copying files from one device (ext4) to another (a VMware Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS machine's ext4 partition - not the NTFS partition), my brand new installation of 12.04 LTS locked up completely. The...

-GULP!-
While trying to install KVIRC, my copy of 10.04.4 LTS locked up completely. My only choice was to cycle the power.

Unfortunately, upon restarting, the Software Center no longer functions...

Thanks - I tried 12.10 and it crashed regularly, so I went with 12.04 LTS - I'm using it as a wrapper for my VMware player anyway, so I just boot into 2D mode and leave it alone.

I tried the...

Have a nice brand new ASUS P8Z77-V LE Plus motherboard with built in sound card. I think it's too new for Ubuntu 10.04.4 - I tried 12.04 and 12.10 and the sound card worked fine (all 64-bit).

But...

I've got the exact same problem....Did you ever come up with a solution to this?

Orion

I've searched through the forums and have tried the suggestions - including the new version of Coolkey posted - listed, but have had ZERO success on getting Firefox to add the \usr\lib\pkcs11\*.so...

Not a 'fix' but a workaround - In Lucid Lynx, the application works fine in the Epiphany web browser...Too easy.

Orion

This issue was resolved by upgrading to Lucid Lynx...Too easy!

Orion

Ah, the upgrade to Lucid Lynx seems to have resolved the issues.

VERY nice.

Thank you!

Orion

Thank you for the advice! I was CRUSHED when it locked up...
