After new Ubuntu 12.10 upgrade the menu taskbar, launchpad disappeared and nowhere to click. I get only the background screen in high resolution After some previous Ubuntu updates I got the same result so I serached in forums and I knew what I had to do and I followed the steps to reinstall Nvidia driver. After this last ubuntu 12.10 update I did it again but now I get the same useless Ubuntu.
Nvidia driver: 310.32
Graphic card: Nvidia Gforce 430
Ubuntu version: 12.10
These are the steps I made.
CTRL+ALT+F2 to prompt login
sudo apt-get update
I stopped xserver sudo service lightdm stop
sudo chmod 755 Nvidia- LInux-x86-64-310.32.run
sudo ./Nvidia-Linu-x86-64.310.32.run
Installation process started
I get "The distribution-provided pre-install script failed! Continue installation anyway?" (Answer: Yes)
I get "Would you like to register the kernel module sources with DKMS? This will allow DKMS to automatically build a new module, if you install a different kernel later. (Answer: Yes)
When prompted to install 32-bit compatibility libraries (Answer: Yes)
I get "Would you like to run the nvidia-xconfig utility to automatically update your X configuration file so that the NVIDIA X driver will be used when you restart X?" (Answer: Yes)
I get ""Would you like to run the nvidia-xconfig utility to update your X configuration Automatically
That file so the NVIDIA X driver will be Used When you restart X? Any pre-existing X configuration file will have backed up." (Answer: Yes)
sudo start lightdm
It returns and I get the same USELESS UBUNTU QUETZAL
It drives me crazy. It stops me in my work. Please any hint or tip. What else can I do??? I don't want to return to use Windows.
