I'm just beginning to use Ubuntu and I don't understand a problem I've been having. It seems incredibly specific as I haven't been able to find anyone else with a similar issue so I was wondering if someone could help me figure out why my Ubuntu 12.04 installation boots to a black screen with a blinking cursor whenever I try to install libglew1.6-dev on Ubuntu.
My system is a dualboot system with Win8.1 and Ubuntu 12.04.
I've tried using this guide My computer boots to a black screen, what options do I have to fix it? but to no avail.
