I tried to update Ubuntu, now I'm missing a module and can't get into my computer, stuck in dos

does it tell you which libraries you need?

perhaps you can start the terminal from the login and add them??

if not do you have a start up in grub that gives you a failsafe option?

I do have a start up with a failsafe option. I did that and entered my login info, now it says mark@mark-laptop~$

I think I saw I similar problem that someone had, but I'm not sure how they fixed it.

Hi :)

Can you open Synaptic? From the top-taskbar click on

System - Administration - Synaptic - Edit - "Fix broken packages" - Apply

Good luck and regards from

I can't open anything from the taskbar because I can't access it. When I turn my laptop on I'm stuck in shell.

sorry your having trouble try typing in

sudo apt-get autoremove or sud apt-get autoclean

there may be something broken thats a dependecy isssue

you can also try

sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get install -f

i would recomend pasting this in afterwords

hope that helps and dont give up !!!

im running suse linux so if these dont clear it up youll have to exuse me

Hi :)

Ok, so you get as far as the boot menu and can reach "recovery mode"? Try the menu option there to "dpkg Fix broken packages"

If you are stuck at the command-line then try typing

sudo apt-get -h | more

Hopefully that should givea few ideas on things worth trying to fix packages. Perhaps

sudo dpkg -h

Might help too?
Sorry if this sounds like a "RTFM" answer but i was hoping that someone that really knew the answer to this might pop-in or pop-back.

Good luck and regards from
