I ran into some problems with the graphics drivers on my machine. I updated them but there was a power cut as they updated and the computer shut off. I can now only boot to the command line. Can someone explain to me how to reinstall/repair the graphics drivers from the command line?

Solved it, did a mix of this:

Firstly, boot to the command line with networking
Run
sudo apt-get autoremove xserver-xorg
Then
sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg
Reboot, you get safe graphics mode, select restore generic drivers and reboot and problem solved
