Reboot the computer and hold the Shift key until the Grub menu appears then scroll down to Advanced Options for Ubuntu. Then scroll down to an older kernel not using upstart or recovery option. In terminal do
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-genericReboot and things should work
