How do you remove entries from the "opens with" menu?
1.Open Nautilus -> Select the file -> File -> Preferences -> Open With -> Select -> Remove."
Or,
1.Where you want to go is into your home folder and use ctrl+h or view -> show hidden files.
2.Then open .local -> share -> applications
In the applications folder should be a file named mimeapps.list (it doesn't exist by default but is created from using, among other things, the r.click in certain ways. If it's not there don't worry.

How To Fix X
the new version of Xorg doesn't reconfigure the graphics driver that way anymore. Instead, get into the VESA driver to get a working desktop (although it will be slow) by doing this from the recovery console:
Code:
xfix
Then from there, go to System->Administration->Hardware Drivers. It will let you know what proprietary drivers are available. Activate, and restart. See if that helps.
