Testing to see if this works. Sometimes installing Ubuntu in a PC without 3D capable video hardware results in a non-bootable system: rather it boots but you can’t see anything, and since the default configuration is that OpenSSH-server is not installed, you can’t shell into it either. You can’t even use CTRL-ALT-F2 to change TTYs — nothing shows on the screen.
How to set the default session (Desktop) in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. This interests me because I make USB boot sticks for a nearby daycare so that they can easily use EdUbuntu games with their children. The sticks are set to automatically log in and so there is no method of setting the default desktop (normally done on the login screen).
