[10:37] <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?
[10:47] <ailo> alexxio: You can try installing ubuntustudio-desktop from recovery mode
[10:48] <alexxio> ailo: how to do that?
[10:48] <ailo> apt-get install ubuntustudio-desktop
[10:48] <alexxio> mmmh ok
[10:49] <ailo> You can try this: apt-get install --reinstall ubuntustudio-desktop
[10:49] <alexxio> i will need the network?
[10:49] <ailo> yes
[10:50] <alexxio> i sent the command
[10:50] <alexxio> thank you
[10:51] <alexxio> mmmh it already finished (that's strage, isn't it?) it says :
[10:52] <alexxio> extracting substitude of ubuntustudio'desktop...configuring ubuntustudio-desktop (0.90)...the returns the shell $
[10:53] <alexxio> now i reboot..it's charging the ubuntu studio splashscreen
[10:53] <alexxio> and it freezes on it
[10:54] <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
[10:55] <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?
[10:56] <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
[10:57] <alexxio> if i'm on recovery boot and reestablish normal boot it goes, but if i do normal boot direcly from grub, it freezes :(
[10:58] <ailo> btw, you could try: apt-get install -f
[10:58] <ailo> But, I would just do a fresh install anyway
[11:10] <alexxio> k thank you
