Ubuntu x64 on a Dell Inspiron 1525, not sure what to do, cannot login as guest or the one profile i created, even using the tty1-6. i've run boot repair and i've done a couple of the boot recovery solutions to no avail. i read many similar threads and posts from all over (re: nvidia cards, .Xauthority edits, reinstalling Unity, creating new user profiles, changing passwords, etc.) and i'm not sure how to accomplish some of the things people are suggesting. i can boot from liveusb, and see the hard drive, but i'm also trying to get some files from there, everything is backed up already from a couple of days ago, i just need maybe a handful of new ones. any suggestions on how to start trying to fix this? (note: i accessed & copied my new files via puppy linux, still wasn't able to copy from live usb, though)
