hans on bootup.... :(((

[reggler]

Uupdated to 11.04 -> reboot
and the boot hangs on stopping system v runlevel compatibility ok, i restarted into recovery mode and did an apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade thebut no more packages are being installed, i don't get the system booted anymore, it keeps hanging at stopping system v runlevel compatibility. Why is this? How can I get my system back?

I thought there might be a problem with the xserver so I re-installed my NVIDIA driver. Also there was no xorg.conf only a whole bunch of backups. I took xorg.conf.failsafe and copied it to xorg.conf, did a startx and instead of starting KDE, I just got ointo a full screen console mode in graphics mode but it wouldn't let me type anything...
Any clues
Thank you for help!

I also just realized that there's no /etc/init.d/kdm ... What's going on here?

Thank you!

[SOLVED] Re: hans on bootup.... ((

Okay, I now did a apt-get install kubuntu-desktop.
Now i got a kdm start script, executing it fires up X but I get a message saying:
Xsesion: unable to launch "" X session --- "" not found; falling back to default session. Confirming that with OK fired up my KDE. Wrong resolution but otherwise things seem fixed...

At a tty console login

sudo service kdm stop

sudo service kdm start

sudo service networking stop

sudo service bluetooth stop

etc. etc.
