cannot reset screen resolution
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I cancelled an update after an hour of no activity following the box: "Failure to download extra data files" from flashplugin-installer. Ubuntu 14.04 now comes up in 640 x 480 resolution and I can't seem to change it from the display settings. On booting I get a notice about there being no resolutions available. Ubuntu has also stopped connecting to WiFi. How can I revert to the situation before the update I cancelled ? I have W7 installed alongside 14.04 which is how I can send this to the forum.

The issues you mentioned are probably not related to the failure to update flashplugin-installer. How about just trying another package update, i.e.sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
