Bug Description
Hello, I have been trying out different version of ubuntu for a couple of years now. very interesting stuff.
Anyway, I installed ubuntu 10.10 x64 on my AMD Laptop. Works good for the most part.
I decided to monkey around and now I regret it. I really liked the new unity concept so I downloaded the unity packages and now when I boot my computer I can't do anything it's frozen. I have over 100 tabs of things open in Firefox and chrome, work related. I need to fix this rather than doing a clean install. I can't lose my work.
I also had Docky installed.
I ran ubuntu in safe mode, booted in no graphics
I ran a package repair thingy
and reset graphics to their default.
Please give me advice quickly because I'm real tired and after trying to recover I got it to boot somewhat but no top bar and I opened Firefox and chrome but I can't switch windows and everytime I click on it in the docklet it opens a few windows instead of switching it, please help hurry.
affects: | launchpad → unity |
Hidden_Cat, I can't help you with the Unity part, but I believe that you can salvage your firefox and chromium browser states by copying ~/.mozilla, ~/.cache/chromium and ~/.config/chromium.
