I need help. Seriously - I've got issues. In the space of 24 hours I've "ruined" my laptop and my desktop.
Two problems:
1:
I've successfully installed 10.10 on my desktop, however - when the login screen pops up I'm only able to login under "Desktop Edition (Safe Mode)". When I attempt to log in under the normal Desktop Edition nothing is present - the top and bottom bars don't show and I'm unable to right-click on anything. I'm also unable to connect to the internet in Safe Mode... I think Ubuntu may not recognize my NIC, but I have been unable to get into the normal Desktop to check. Is it possible to solve this through Safe Mode - or do I have to reinstall everything over again?
2:
I've got a Dell Studio 1555 with Vista x64 installed, and GRUB2 on the MBR. The extra hard drive that 10.10 was on is gone - so each time I boot it reads an error (device not listed). I need to rewrite the MBR, but don't have a disk to do so yet - this problem is more temporary. However, I was wondering if there is a solution through the GRUB> command line.
Any help will be much appreciated...
