Bug Description

My computer failed to boot correctly a few weeks ago, and after restarting several times with no success, I booted with a previous line on the menu that comes up. That seemed to work, but now there are further problems.

I'm afraid I am not very tech-savvy, as you can probably tell.

You may need to run the following from a terminal:

sudo apt-get install -f
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update

Then re-install the package or updates.

If that does not resolve your issue, please mark the bug as "Confirmed"

Dear Joseph

I am amazed that Ubuntu has such excellent help and support!

Thanks again
