I have tried re-installing ubuntu desktop. It isn't helping.

I was transferring heavy files from file system to hard drive and suspended it for a while as the computer slowed down. I was not able to wake the system from suspension and so did a forced shut-down. When i booted it up again, it asked me to run fsck manually. I did that and after I got the message 'File system was modified' I typed exit in the terminal. Then instead of starting up, ubuntu got stuck in the start up screen and didn't proceed further. The error it shows is:

    intel_pipe_config_compare [i915] *ERROR* mismatch in ips_enabled (expected 1, found 0)

tty 4 is working but without internet. tty 7 has this error. If i try booting ubuntu 15.10 from usb, its not getting recognised. Even windows installation CD isn't working. How do I get my ubuntu desktop without losing data?

  • I'm having the exact same issue (also in 15.10). I also remember having to do a hard shutdown (ie just holding the power button down until it turns off). In startup I get as far as: 'code'Starting Daemon for power management... 'code'[ OK ] Started daemon for power management. I have wifi and internet, and have tried running through the top two answers from this question, as I suspect my nvidia drivers may be involved (but have had no luck). askubuntu.com/questions/41681/… Feb 21, 2016 at 9:24
