Sorry, that your upgrade ended in such a mess. Using third party repositories makes upgrading a lot more diffcult. Which one did you use?
You could try to get a working with system with the following commands: "dpkg --configure -a", "apt-get install -f", "apt-get -u dist-upgrade" and finally an "apt-get install ubuntu-desktop". I will move this bug memtest86 since this is the showstopper in this case.
