Full Discussion: Blank screen after upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04!
Operating Systems Linux Ubuntu Blank screen after upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04! Post 302741285 by GTrip on Friday 7th of December 2012 10:08:21 PM

Save the output of a command to a file in your home dir:

ls -a >> ~/myfile.txt

So, what did not work with the last suggestions? If you can get to a shell command prompt and login,

("I switched to terminal (tty1 ~ tty6), which looked fine and showed it is Ubuntu 12.04 !")

you should be able to have success with "startx" to bring up a GUI desktop, OR it should give error output. If you can't login to a shell, then that's another story.
