alexxio | hello | 10:37 |
alexxio | i upgraded my ubuntu(studio) from previous version to 11.10, but when it was installing all the packages i accidentally rebooted it...now it works only in recovery mode and not in normal mode..what can i do to understand where the problem is? | 10:37 |
ailo | alexxio: You can try installing ubuntustudio-desktop from recovery mode | 10:47 |
alexxio | ailo: how to do that? | 10:48 |
ailo | apt-get install ubuntustudio-desktop | 10:48 |
alexxio | mmmh ok | 10:48 |
ailo | You can try this: apt-get install --reinstall ubuntustudio-desktop | 10:49 |
alexxio | i will need the network? | 10:49 |
ailo | yes | 10:49 |
alexxio | i sent the command | 10:50 |
alexxio | thank you | 10:50 |
alexxio | mmmh it already finished (that's strage, isn't it?) it says : | 10:51 |
alexxio | extracting substitude of ubuntustudio'desktop...configuring ubuntustudio-desktop (0.90)...the returns the shell $ | 10:52 |
alexxio | now i reboot..it's charging the ubuntu studio splashscreen | 10:53 |
alexxio | and it freezes on it | 10:53 |
ailo | Well, it's hard to know what went wrong during your upgrade | 10:54 |
alexxio | i know | 10:54 |
ailo | I never like to upgrade myself. I always do a fresh install | 10:54 |
alexxio | i gave a dpkg --configure -a | 10:54 |
ailo | You should back up your files, and do a new install | 10:54 |
ailo | It's much faster that way, I think | 10:54 |
ailo | I usually keep my files on a separate partition, like a data partition. This way, I don't need to touch them when I reinstall | 10:55 |
alexxio | and configurations? | 10:55 |
alexxio | do you have a separate /home too? | 10:55 |
ailo | Nope. I use symbolic links to my home for those configs that I like to keep | 10:56 |
ailo | But, if you want to save something specific, just backup those | 10:56 |
alexxio | if i'm on recovery boot and reestablish normal boot it goes, but if i do normal boot direcly from grub, it freezes :( | 10:57 |
ailo | btw, you could try: apt-get install -f | 10:58 |
ailo | But, I would just do a fresh install anyway | 10:58 |
alexxio | k thank you | 11:10 |
