Any body on this

Let's see if I can't gather some helpful links. This thing is a compatibility nightmare.

Video is a Mobile4 Intel set (probably will not run compiz, but I might be surprized). I'll need to see your /etc/X11/xorg.conf, specifically the part titled Section "Device".

WiFi is an Atheros card. These things are known to not work out-of-the-box in Ubuntu, largely because you need a driver the Ubuntu dev's don't trust as stable yet: madwifi ath5k. Please see this post:

I don't see the camera, though it may be one of the "Unknown Devices" on the bottom. I'd like to see the output of lsusb first just to make sure.

You're using generic "failsafe" settings. It works, but there's no acceleration, your space is limited and looks like crud on a LCD.
As the file suggests, try this first:

[Ctrl + Alt + F1]

login with user and pass (doesn't echo password)

sudo init 3

wait for X to close and init level 3 reached.

sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

init 5 (or reboot)

BTW: what model is your laptop?

[yogusmilu]

ACER Aspire 4730Z .

Thanks for your needful help!!

Oh that's right, you have a couple other threads going... Like before, we'll probably have to rebuild you xorg.conf, but lets see what the reconfigure does first.
