Looks like X server does not wake from stand by properly. With the current information you have given, you can only reboot to fix this. Log into your account using the ctrl+alt+F1 console.Enter your...
synaptic is, in fact, just your add-apt, apt-get and apt-remove commands in a GUI. I find it extremeley convenient to have, since i do not want to search around for the actual package name of some...
Looks like you installed grub on the USB instead of your HDD. You can try to fix it running this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair with a Live boot session. As for Reinstall, there should...

I got the same! It is amazing! Although i had some doubts and thought a mechanical keyboard would be better for gaming etc., i did not like the "clickyness" of them. I must say i am most satisfied...
i kind of have to agree here. Gnome 3 has been out for quite some time. Unity was introduced with the release of 11.04
So, since i was not able to get it working on my current install i installed some Ubuntu versions on a seperate partition trying to get it to work. The result was, that there it worked on 12.04 (and...
no need to do so...he just needs one NTFS partition where he can store files for both operating systems. Besides, you cannot install ubuntu on ntfs..
