linux help requested
Hi all,
Need help with making linux work again.
Some time ago I bought a cheap Lenovo 11e laptop for cheap. Installed Linux Mint 17 64bit on it and used it happily for many months. A few days ago it did not wake up from a hibernation session, and an attempt at bootup just shows the Mint logo and does not go anywhere. I possibly can get into the grub session but no idea what to do next.
Suggestions?
Thanks!
Update. Всем спасибо! We made Linux great again снеся Минт у установив Убунту. В чем была проблема, так и не поняли. По логам, все хорошо вплоть до иксов. Ну да ладно.

At first try Ctrl+Alt+F1 to switch consoles (F1-...F6, or add "Func" key to combination, Ctrl+Alt+F7 is return to graphic console).
If it works, login in text console and make sure if file system is alive and good. If it is true, try to backup your disk. If not - sorry.

The look around. First of all do 'dmesg' to see whether all hardware is up normally.
What I would have do then is to disable graphical regime, so that X is not started, and reboot. Then I should be able to see the console messages
and see whether other than X services started OK. Then start X manually to see if it gets up ...
