Issues after upgrading to Ubuntu 12.10

  • 772

I have attached an image of my laptop screen after I upgraded to Ubuntu 12.10 from 12.04. You will notice that all the desktop shows is 3 files. No taskbars or topbars are on the screen. When I start Ubuntu I get an "Internal Error Occurred msg" also.

Any help or advice on how to fix would be greatly appreciated.

  1. I had a similar issue and tried some of the tips on reverting to open source graphics due to my old ATI driver on the 12.04.

    sudo apt-get remove --purge xorg-driver-fglrx fglrx*
sudo apt-get install --reinstall libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri fglrx-modaliases
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-core

    Found these commands at this link.

    I think there was a message about fglrx-modaliases no longer being supported or missing but it still worked for me. Had to reboot after doing this.

    I was able to get the terminal up from a right click option on the desktop.

    Hope that helps.
