System -> About Ubuntu should tell you.

I have no idea how to do that It would be helpful to developers if you could post the X server log (/var/log/Xorg.0.log) created after the failure. For example, use w3m to log into your webmail account and send a message with /var/log/Xorg.0.old attached (works with gmail :). > I also heard that Dapper allows us to look/see files on a windows > partition.

Your windows partition should be recognized at install time and the proper entry should be already present in /etc/fstab. You can add it yourself, using something like this: /dev/hda1 /media/windows ntfs uid=YOU,nls=utf8 0 0 (substitute YOU with your user name create the mount directory with "sudo mkdir /media/windows" if it does not exist).
