I am tearing my hair out. I had a working system with Maverick, but I thought I needed to upgrade just to make sure things would work right to get a working LIVE USB -- that is another issue.
I upgraded once and had permissions issues in Naultilus, so I just upgraded again thinking those issues were likely to be resolved in Oneiric. I just made problems worse.
When I log in there is a mouse cursor in the middle of the screen that will not move. I have a USB mouse and it was working just fine before the upgrade. I tried unplugging it and plugging it back in, but the cursor still just sits in the middle of the screen and I can't use my mouse at all.
Second problem is that the upgrade also broke my wifi connection. I have tried to scan for it in terminal, but no interface is recognized. I am completely stuck. Can the mouse situation be fixed from terminal? Can the wifi be fixed from terminal without knowing what my interface is, or with it not being recognized?
I don't have a touch screen or touchpad.
