<P dir=ltr>I have an Nvidia optimus 610m video adapter. Normally I would
have no issue with a clean install, however I need to get my files backed up and
don't know how to copy them from the command line to either a usb or CD.</P>
<P dir=ltr>I did not disable ppas.</P>
<P dir=ltr>Thanks again your feedback.</P>

<P dir=ltr>I'm a new Xubuntu user (a few months). I know a small
amount of scripting but am in no way an expert. I've been running
13.10 without issue for awhile now and decided to upgrade to 14.04 using
the in-system updater.</P>
<P dir=ltr>The upgrade seemed to go uneventfully until the reboot. The
system rebooted, I got the splash screen then everything went black.
However I was able to use cntrl+ apt +F1 to log in to the command
line. Yet everything that requires a GUI fails.</P>
<P dir=ltr>Any ideas?</P><BR>
