Help - no gui !!!
I was running Ubuntu 10.04 without any problems for over a month until a few minutes ago my laptop went to sleep and just blocked on resume with a screen with black pixels. I was forced to turn it off. When I turned it on, the same black screen appears. So I tried with the other kernels and with the recovery modes with no success.
In recovery mode I tried the atlernative Graphical server but still cannot show any GUI. At least I have access to terminal. I think the problem may be resolved if I remove the Nvidia Driver. Do you know the name of that package? Should I then use the "apt-get remove ----" command?
Maybe you would suggest a different solution?
My main concern is my Firefox Bookmarks. Do you know how can I export/save them from either the terminal or another OS?
Thanks
EDIT: Actually, if I don't select "recovery mode" and boot in just normal more, what happens is the "UBUNTU" splash screens stays on the screen for ever. Only when I select recovery mode, I get black a menu and then if I choose "Normal Boot" or "Alternative Graphical server" from that menu I get the black screen.
