I installed Ubuntu 14.04 last night on my Lenovo X200, Dual Core 2.4GHz 3GB RAM and 250GB HDD. Everything was working fine, and this morning when I powered it up to double check everything, it was all good.
I came into work and all booted up fine.
However, when I tried to login (password protected user); only user on the computer - It logged in fine but was stuck straight away, with the blank screen (the background of the login screen) and just my cursor. Nothing else.
I left it for a few minutes thinking it was just being a little slow, but to no avail nothing happened. I have tried a reboot and nothing happened.
