Ok right when I login to Ubuntu 12.10 installed via Windows installer it [Ubuntu 12.10] shows the desktop background but not the menus, sidebar or the topbar I can't even start the terminal with the keyboard shortcut. I tried rebooting heap of times I even tried using the advanced options to repair broken packages. I only just installed it yesterday. Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance!

P.S. I have previously rebooted about 5 time successfully.

  • Hi, and welcome to AskUbuntu. Can you post the hardware specs of the machine: CPU, RAM, and most importantly, the graphics card. – mikewhatever Feb 04 '13 at 06:29

  • I am now happily running Ubuntu 12.10 installed with Ubuntu .iso which I installed on to a USB using YUMI. One thing I found out is, it is important to make sure you have the right version for your computer cause I have always had trouble running Ubuntu because I was always using the 32bit version and even though it does work on a 64bit computer some 64bit computers won't like it [just don't try 64bit on a 32bit computer it doesn't work. Good way for noobs to find out which one their computers run on though ;) ] Thanks everyone! – HSOJ JOSH Mar 20 '13 at 21:23
