I installed ubuntu unity 12.10 on my vaio and it was working well, but somewhere after installing the updates and installing Unsettings, Cairo dock and ubuntu tweek, a window displays sying that the system needs to restart and after the restart; ubuntu starts loading but it only loads terminal (it asks me for my user and password just as if it was the normal thing but just in terminal. no visual interface). What can I do? Please help!

What happens when you log into the console and run sudo service lightdm restart? – phoibos Feb 1 at 11:12
