[05:16] <LethalP> I installed Ubuntu 8.10 inside windows and everything went fine but when i boot into Ubuntu at the boot screen then it asks my Username and Password as usual but after i log in I get a black screen with just my mouse cursor and nothing else, any help ?
[05:51] <shtylman> This was happening for me as well
[05:51] <shtylman> I recommend switching to a virtual terminal
[05:51] <shtylman> logging in there
[05:51] <shtylman> and doing: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:52] <shtylman> then reboot after that and hopefully fixed
[05:52] <shtylman> well...didn't even see he left :/
[10:21] <evand> ugh, terribly annoying KVM bug where the window gets destroyed.  I just lost two hours work on fixing the partition bar because I didn't scp things out before that happened. :/
[11:54] <persia> evand, Although I also use the SDL front-end extensively, that's one of the arguments for using the vnc front-end.
[11:54] <persia> Mind you, it's harder to remember to kill the session that way.
[15:09] <shtylman> evand: that sucks marjorly :( ... I sometimes just mount my local machine (with the bzr branch) into the virtual machine and link up some of the python files, to not accidentally lose work :/
