Upgraded my stock Dell Mini 9 netbook remix from 10.04 to 10.10 over the network, there were no errors, and on restart the GUI failed to load after login. (i.e. no icons, no sidebar, nothin'. Processes and daemons seemed to load in the background but I couldn't interact with any of em.) Has this happened to anyone else?

(Then I installed stock, and the wireless drivers can't install (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1588774&highlight=dell+mini). Wasn't the Mini the flagship netbook or something? What a disaster.)
