Some of you are aware of my previous problem where I was unable to upgrade to Ubuntu 8.1.0. Well the upgrade finally worked but new problems now. I can't get past the login in screen. It locks up every time and I can't get to the desktop.
I tried logging in on the command line and doing the apt-get upgrade and update but when it rebooted it took me back to the froze up login screen. Maybe I need to downgrade back to 8.0.4. Can I do that from the command line? Other suggestions?
