Ubuntu – Stuck In Grub Command On Boot
Mar 18th

If you ever find yourself unable to boot into your Ubuntu OS, have grub legacy installed and only get the grub command – try this fix to resolve.
Remove and reinstall xserver on Ubuntu 9.10
Jan 16th
Well the time came when my good friend Richard asked for some help with his new monitor/graphics card setup.
Ubuntu had thrown him into low graphics mode. No good for his new 22″ LCD and also no good without 3D acceleration.
This fix takes about 20 seconds but will basically remove X11 from your Ubuntu install, purge the files and reinstall it so you can setup X11 exactly as it does in the installation of Ubuntu.
