Do you think you could have messed up your system by installing/uninstalling video drivers or modifying the configuration by hand? When did this start to happen? – Jorge Suárez de Lis Jan 20 at 17:27

I don't remember that i did anything like this i think i tryied to install the new beta version oneric it might be i don;t remember very whel and some problem happened there and caused this! @jorge-suarez-de-lis – giorgo Jan 20 at 17:35
We can't help you with that little information. At least make the effort to reproduce the message, and state your Ubuntu version. – Jorge Suárez de Lis Jan 20 at 17:41
