After reboot, the screen shows Error 15: File not found.

Any suggestions?

Reinstall 12.04 and do NOT change the default! There is no good reason to upgrade from an LTS version! Any new version will come out with bugs. I have Kubuntu 12.04 LTS and have no plans to upgrade it.

Only my laptop has 12.10, all the work machines will stick to 12.04 for life, only have added necessary repos to them to keep some programs up to date.

Ubuntu can be pimped up with "Bleeding Edge" script. Or you can add all the third party mainstream ppa's at UbuntuUpdates.com

Need to be very careful with ppa, only official ones or the ones from the devs themselves. Good that debian package management maybe one can make LTS into a STS if package management go haywire.

Whew, that was close. Ubuntu Tweak dead but now not dead.

Ubuntu Tweak is stopped

What does the developer mean by 'no longer free' being initially the reason for stopping development ? ...
