Keep getting alert notification box, with close button. But get no response from keyboard or mouse. So I can't get past it.

Alert =
It seems that you do not have the hardware required to run Unity. Please choose Ubuntu Classic at the login screen and you will be using the traditional environment.

(Late model Dell, probably less than 2 years old.)

But since I can't use the mouse to activate the close button, or use the keyboard (alt + x, or enter), I can't get past that point.

Is there some control sequence I can use during boot startup and get to single user mode and modify something?

Thanks,

Bob Gruber
