Ok. Step 1. Install Ubuntu and expect it to somewhat work. Step 2. Go through an upgrade to the latest version. Step 3. Restart machine. Step 4. Login. Step 5. Wait until someone pushes a massively untested change. (I.e. Like when the kernel decided every storage device should be /dev/sdx even if they were /dev/hdx and the Ubuntu team didn't test and run any scripts to update it.) Step 6. Apt-get upgrade to that massively untested version. Step 7. Restart computer. Step 8. Log in. Step 9. No desktop shows up, only a background.
