Public bug reported: After upgrading, I had no GUI at all, just a cosole, and the message kinit No resume image
I logged in, and followed directions at: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/how-i-got-back-my-ubuntu-gui-680600/ sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop xorg xserver-xorg xserver-xorg-input-all -y sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg sudo swapoff /dev/sdb5 sudo mkswap /dev/sdb5 sudo update-initramfs -u Things improved, the kinit No resume image message was gone, but all I get is a low resolution (default) display and the reconfiguration tool offered is not working (well, after selecting it I get a black display for at least 5 minutes with no disk activity, should I wait more?) The most weird is that if I open a console with CtrlAltF1, login and try again sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg I get an error stating that "xserver-xorg not installed" even right after sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop xorg xserver-xorg xserver-xorg-input-all -y If I login in the low resolution graphic mode and open an xterm. there sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg works, but has no effect: after rebooting I still have the configuration problem. I've googled for "xserver-xorg not installed" and found quite a number of entries, the most relevant perhaps http://ge.ubuntuforums.com/showthread.php?t=967790 but no solution (and no reason...)
