    Linux not correctly loading to GUI.

    Ello!
    I installed linux not to long ago and it very recently decided to stop working like it should. Now, when I boot it shows the splash screen for a short second, then things like:

    * Starting configure virtual network devices [OK]
    * Stopping System V runlevel compatibility [OK]

    I've pressed ctrl+alt+F7 and sudo seems to be gone or lost, and I can't log in or use sudo to do things like reinstall sudo. Help?

    Hello and Welcome!

    What version was installed? And can you post what the last 5 or 10 lines are when it freezes?
    Also, right before this occurred, were there any changes made... software or hardware changes? Kernel updates?
