Have you tried loading a previous kernel from the grub menu?  Ubuntu hides
the grub menu on boot, by default.  You may have to hold or press shift or
some other key when the grub prompt appears.

This sounds like a kernel issue from a botched upgrade or something.  If its
10.10, I've seen some grub-> grub2 migration problems that are in this same
ball park.

In the future, you may want to create a separate partition for your /home
directory and automate some backups of that home directory to an external
drive or remote backup service.  Then, you can safely nuke your install if
it ever comes to that.
