I have 12.04 on a duel boot partition with Windows 7, my desktop on 12.04 is frozen, I would like to upgrade but all I have access to is the command line. How do I fix or unfreeze the desktop?
1 Answer
to update : sudo apt-get update
to upgrade : sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo reboot
after if the problem is still there ,if u use Nvidia drivers try to use the following commands(in order without restart) :
sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
sudo nvidia-xconfig
sudo reboot
hopefully will work

@Fisher I tried your suggestion and it is still frozen. The video driver is ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250.– MarthaApr 1, 2014 at 21:24
