Dual boot Lucid upgrade
I am upgrading an Ubuntu system from 8.04 to 10.04. In view of various warnings, I decided not to use the update manager, but to use the 10.04 Desktop install CD.
I had a dual boot Hardy with windows.
Now I have a strange pseudo Lucid windows!
On startup it gives the usual Grub selections. All good so far.
On Selecting windows, it runs fine. Again no problem.
On selecting Ubuntu a standard login screen is displayed with the usual dialog box.
After typing the password, the system pauses and then loops back to the login screen.
If I abandon the graphic and go for a command line login, that seems to work ok. But there is no sign of graphics and a desktop.
I know that this is not very complete info, but, since the system worked fine before the upgrade, it is hard to know where to dig.
Any ideas?
