 But what happend is happend.
i was confused when this upgrade possibility shown
while went for a routine update using update-manager.
an upgrade from 10.4 to 12.4 through update-manager window.
For a curiosity i obliged to upgrade and downloaded all the pages.
Towards the final of installing upgrade my terminal stand stuck while doing install GRUB.
I had no idea how to resolve the problem , attempted to restart the system.
But I cannot reach the new 12.4 desktop.
So installed again 9.1 from my pendrive and as a result ,i could approach the Grub utility window at the start.
From their i attempted to recover 12.4 desktop. As result as root i can log in to that desktop with a startx command. The desktop was blank . When i right clicked mouse , i could arrive at some short cuts, and making use controle+alt+T opened the terminal and used fire fox and reached this site for making this report.

I have no idea with this unity desktop for 12.4
Once i reached up to the login window for the unity desktop, showing username&password columns.
but it remain hidden.
