Anyways, the error-message indicates that you are missing a font, so it may happened that in the upgrade process a necessary package has been removed. Since I am not an Ubuntu user I don't know which package this could be. |
anyway, thank you!
who is ubuntu user and can help me to check this question? |
Try running as root
Code:
apt-get install xfonts-base |
