UnreportableReason:
There are some older package versions installed on your system. Upgrade the following packages and see if the problem is still there:
libglib2.0-0, libglib2.0-bin, libglib2.0-data
UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install)
_MarkForUpload: True
I installed these missing packages, but I still have the same problems:
System Settings do not work (ubuntu logo keeps spinning infinitely)
Browser does not work (I disabled my wired connexion and used wifi instead, but I cannot open Browser)
Terminal does not work (Control Alt T, or typing Terminal in Dash: nothing happens)
I tried NVIDIA GeForce GT 530 driver: result: lightdm freezes.
Using X.org X server - Nouveau works fine, at least I can open Unity 8 and see Indicators and Launcher.
I have written a log, I could publish it through Pastebin if it is any use to you. I would be grateful if someone can help me making Unity 8 work because I plan to write documentation for the Ubuntu docs.
