Public bug reported: just installed ubuntu 10.10 yesterday morning, my pc later that day had issues shutting down. today there are errors when login. unable to repair, or install any other OS on the system to clear the issue. wont even download files from the web(trying to download 10.4 instead). unable to do anything on the system to clear the problem and need it off my system.
first error when log on is: Could not update ICEauthority file /home/beautiful/.ICEauthority frm there, it goes to the main screen and gives 2 other errors: The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_IndicatorApplet". Do you want to delete the applet from your configuration? The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_FastApplet". Do you want to delete the applet from your configuration? from here I am on the home screen, but the desktop picture has changed and I cannot make any changes to the pc config as far as the background, adding items to the panel, changing theme, unable to download files from the web, unable to change the OS, unable to install any other OS on the system. also when it comes on, the ubuntu 10.10 screen(the purple screen) has a lot of typing on top of it(like command line info) covering the entire screen, highlighted in black. cd that I created to install the software, I have tried that and am unable to install. this image was downloaded from the ubuntu website directly. I have tried this several times with no success. how else would I accomplish this if the system will not accept any OS disk I use in the computer at this point? I even used a bittorrent client http://deluge-torrent.org/ to download the iso image, the torrent protocol has a good error check while download. http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/alternative-download the problem I keep running into is the pc with the ubuntu on it has me as read only rights although I'm the admin of the pc, wont let me do anything with the disk(previous dvd downloads of 10.10 and 10.4) from the link u provided me, will try it as a cd, but do you think this will actually work considering it hasn't worked on the previous tries? pretty much anything I try to do on the computer it wont allow me to do... well at this point it wont open any program that I am clicking on, the deluge thing didn't work either and this is a brand new computer, what am I supposed to do at this point b/c this program has messed up my computer, I have to message you from another pc all together at this point. is there any other support or way to take the software completely off the system in order to reinstall windows back onto the system b/c the basic programs that come on the system wont even open? telling me the cd in the cd drive doesn't exist... ** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/694036 Title: brand new pc ruined from ubuntu 10.10 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
