I think you are experiencing an Ubuntu Crash . . Now from my own experience and a little Google, I can tell you some ways to get your Ubuntu out of the crash . . . Follow the following link and you will surely get out of crash . . 4-ways-to-get-yourself-out-of-a-ubuntu-crash
Step 1: The Ubuntu Linux operating system is available either with or without a desktop environment. The version with the desktop environment is meant for personal use and includes word processing, email and graphic editing software. The version without the desktop environment is called "Ubuntu Server." The server version does not come with any graphical software or productivity software. There are three different desktop environments available for the Ubuntu operating system. The default is the Gnome desktop. The other two are the KDE and the XFCE desktop environments.
Log into the server. Type the command "sudo apt-get update" to update the list of software packages available. Type the command "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" to install the Gnome desktop. Type the command "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop" to install the XFCE desktop. Type the command "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" to install the KDE desktop. Type the command "sudo reboot" to reboot the server. Ubuntu Linux Tutorials,Howtos,Tips & News http://www.ubuntugeek.com/install-gui-in-ubuntu-server.html
There is no My computer icon in KDE. On the task bar click the K with the Gear. Explore the Favorites menu. Make sure that the Dolphin file explorer is there. By clicking Dolphin your Home folder will open. You can also add a widget on the desktop. Point to some empty space on the desktop. Right click the mouse button then select Add widgets. At the bottom of the screen some windows open. In the categories, look for file sytem. Choose and enter. A widget of your home will be displayed.
One advice. I think you should run the Synaptic Package. Manager to make sure you get all necessary packages for KDE. In the QuickFilter text area enter KDE. All packages that relate to KDE will be displayed. Explore to see if there is something you need that was not installed. Select all the packages you want. Any package required for the one you selected will be chosen for installation.
Hi, I too upgraded from Ubuntu 9.04 to Ubuntu 9.10 using wubi, the Windows ubuntu installer. Everything was fine, and I even admired the beautiful desktop, added KDE. I was very impressed until came the time to reboot. Grub hung. I entered the console and tried to repair: To no avail. I reinstalled Ubuntu/Gnome without installing KDE. All went fine until the time to reboot. It hung again. After several trials, I decided to go back to Ubuntu 9.04.
From what I could gather on the Internet, it has to do with the new type of file system ext4. If only I had the choice to use it or not.
Since I was using wubi and was not offered the choice to install the ext4 file system, I do not know whether that choice is offered on a full scale installation without wubi. You might try to find out if you can customize the installation process and not select the ext4 file system, if possible.
One remark concerning the amount of swap space you are setting aside. In my opinion that's too much: I have a 2GB RAM, about 300MB swap space, and each time I monitor swap usage I find it very low to nil.
Concerning Ubuntu 9.10, I will wait until the bug(?) is fixed before upgrading. Good luck to you
First question to ask. Check the game, can it run under Linux (Ubuntu). If yes, check the Ubuntu community for help (can be reached thru the google start-up page of firefox browser on your ubuntu machine)
Kbuntu will completely overwirte ubuntu. you could try though to make another partition to install it to. kbuntu is the one with the KDE inerface so it will be totally different the regualr gnome ubuntu.
I am not 100% sure, but I remember having a similar problem once. The reason is that root stopped owning a couple of ./kde files, so that a user had not correct access to the files. Open a terminal and type:
myusername@ubuntu:~$ sudo chown myusername:myusername /home/myusername/.* Password:
Replace "myusername" with your username. The password asked will be root's password (which might be the same as yours.)
