am merely an Ubunbtu user and have no knowledge of the finer workings
of the command line.
Perhaps someone can suggest how I can get back to the Dapper desktop. I
would be most appreciative.
Many thanks,
Keith.

I can remember what alterations I made but I have no idea
how to edit the file from the command line.
Can someone please point me in the right direction.
Many thanks,
Keith.

Thanks to Andy, Baza and Matthew for your help.
I used the sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg suggestion and now have a
desktop with my own choice of screen resolutions.

Can anyone suggest what's going on and, better still, how to fix it?

ere a recommended method to uninstall Ubuntu,

Cheers,

I've been trying to add other programs but when I try to use Adept it
tells me it is being used by another program and to close that program
