Setup fresh Sublime Text 2 on Ubuntu / Linux
This will install and setup sublime (in /opt) and make it available via the 's' link (kept in /usr/local/bin)
Just type s on command line to open Sublime Text from then on!
First, (from a browser in your target Linux OS) go here: http://sublimetext.com (<-- click this link) and THEN right-click the <Download for Linux> button, and choose: Copy Link Location ... so you have the latest/greatest for your Linux OS.
Now in a terminal (ctrl-alt T, in Ubuntu), execute the following:
cd /opt

Fix Ubuntu from command-line / recovery mode
So choose Recovery Mode, then login/exit to the command line, then:
mount -n -o remount,rw /
Above makes your hard drive read/write, which you'll need, in order to do the next step
sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Use nano to edit your xorg.conf to fix it, ideally.
