Been there! Done that! I think it's probably not very hard to figure out how to undo stuff that has been done and may not have worked as intended, such as the "purge" command I showed above, but for new users it's frequently more reassuring to just start over, since installing and updating from scratch only takes about an hour (including udpdates).
... You have no idea how much I appreciate this. Thank you so much!
I know how much you appreciate it, believe me, so many thanks our Spanish speaking friend and colleague, and thanks also to you for posting the thread, since your quest proved to solve my problem as well!
One thing to be careful about is how old some articles are. Sometimes, you'll find troubleshooting tips that have nothing to do with current releases, so try to find a date on anything you use, and ignore anything prior to 12.04 (the most recent LTS version using Unity) unless you have figured out why it might work. In the case of that earlier solution you posted a link for (http://steamcommunity.com/app/221410...0354325873942/), that person was using an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series card, and those are no longer supported, which is why he was downgrading his system from the kernel version and the latest xorg-xserver version.
