unbuntu wouldnt boot

Asked by jkalter

Binary package hint: gnome-utils

unbuntu wouldnt boot; upon reboot it booted to black screen. #rd time it booted fine like nothing had happened.
I did just "upgrade" (install) 8.10. x64 from CU Boulder server.
 I saw this was well in SYs log:

Try booting with acpi=off.
