Kubuntu Application Crash

[Guest]

I am using Ubuntu since last 5 years but I didn't face such problem . I am using Kubuntu 10.4 since few days. I am getting too many application crash messages. I have reported bug already but today I'm just updating my software and i got a crash message. and i carelessly close the window without reading the message.

Bingo!!!!

my whole screen get black and menu and windows disappeared but update is still running in terminal. I restart my computer several time but after logging in same black screen. I think everything is working properly but nothing is visible.

Maybe a video driver issue or xorg.conf got corrupted. Are you able to get to Konsole and post the contents of

cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf

??

1) DON'T bother doing what buckeyered80 did (sorry buck but I don't think it will help us in this case)

DO post the output of

cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log

. Any thing with an [EE] next to it is an error that we need to understand.

2) We need to know some background. What video card? What video driver? Did you upgrade to 10.04 from a previous distro?

3) When your whole screen goes black and the update is still running does it finish without errors?

No problem dude...checking the log is not a bad place to start.

Re: Kubuntu Application Crash

You really need to be more specific here. Are you able to log in to a terminal? Did you get the errors from the log that I requested? How about some more information about your video card setup?

...sometimes I wonder where the trolls are in KFN.
