I turned my computer on this morning and was prompted to do a Ubuntu Base update. I did the update as instructed and was prompted to restart.
As the computer was restarting I noticed that my boot splash screen had dissapeared and was replaced with commands running from the top of the screen. It eventually then gets stuck on this line: IPv6:ADDCONF... ...eth0:link becomes ready It stays on this line for about 5 minutes after which it goes to a blank Maroon cloured screen and doesn't move from there.
If I press ctrl alt delete on this line:IPv6:ADDCONF... ...eth0:link becomes ready it goes into the OS but gives me a screen which says your computer is running in low graphics mode, and gives me a few options, none of which work.
Here's the really strange thing this only happens every second boot-up, every other boot-up in runs through the boot and even gives me the splash screen but in a dos like look and boots into Ubuntu just fine.
I'm really having a hard time trying to figure out what is wrong with my OS. I really hope someone can help me solve this issue. Here is the log entry of my update I did today:
