comment Accidentally ran “sudo chmod a+rx ~”
sudo chmod a+rx ~ will change that folder, and only that folder, not the folders and files inside it. To affect all files and folders inside ~ you would have needed to use the -R option, so you are sort of safe...

comment Accidentally ran “sudo chmod a+rx ~”
Read edit, since you did not use -R you actually only changed your user's home folder, not even the files and folders inside it.

comment Accidentally ran “sudo chmod a+rx ~”
What user where you logged in at the time you ran the command? That command would only change the current user's home folder permisions (not the files and folders inside it since you did not use -R), not the complete system...

comment GNOME 3.8 blacks out the screen when Ubuntu asks for password
Think this is by design... You would have to suggest the change to the GNOME team.

comment Do I need any drivers for a ThinkPad L410 laptop?
Linux does use drivers as Windows does, they are present most of the times in the Kernel supplied with a distribution and just there, the chances that you need to build an external driver to be used by your system are very remote. The best way to test that is by using the livecd and see if everything boots and works "out of the box", else open up a new question specific for the hardware part that is not working properly.
