Upgrading from Ubuntu 16.04 to 18.04 doesn´t boot












0














After upgrading to 18 and sudo Xorg -configure:



modprobe: FATAL: module fbcon not found in directory /lib/modules/4.15.0-42-generic



it seems there is a problem with vesa drivers which don´t fix sudo apt-get install --reinstall x11-xserver-utils xserver-xorg ......



startx doesn´t work



I tried to upgrade from Ubuntu 16.04 to Ubuntu 18.04. First, after downloading and installing of packages, screen is in black. system doesn´t do anything. But then I logged into tty1 and then logged in Ubuntu. It was saying that I am in Ubuntu 18.04. Then it asked for reboot. So I rebooted Ubuntu from terminal. It got stuck at something like /dev/sda4 : Cleaning files. After trying for a few times, I got into tty1 and here I logged in as root user and tried to update and upgrade. But now I am getting errors like unmet dependencies and broken packages. I have done sudo dpkg -- configure -a. I don't want to do a reinstall of Ubuntu. How do I get access to my Ubuntu Desktop?



i tried autoremove gnome-core gnome-shell gnome-sessions and install it newly. i tried fsck. i tried dpkg ...



it stops booting after showing:
[ok] Started update utmp about system runlevel changes.



Any googling solution doesn´t work apparently or i become lost after reading a lot



boot-repair says: xhost unable to open display



thanks in advance
