kaberett: a dalek stands at the foot of a flight of stairs, thinking "fuck." (dalek)
It has been a bit of a saga, this week.

I've been actually using my desktop more: it's better for Playing Portal On, because it's got An Actual Mouse. Because I'm me, it's running Debian testing. Also because I'm me, it's got a Windows install on it that won't let me Do Anything unless I'm connected to the work network, and won't let me connect to the work VPN until I've logged in, and won't let me log in until I've connected to the work network, so I've just not... touched it basically since bringing it home (though, to be fair, I also barely touched it while it was at work, and especially now I've got [personal profile] sebenikela's wine-and-Adobe Digital Editions thing working I have very little call for Windows, at all, ever).

Which means I've been periodically updating it, as one does.

Which means that I had a Grand Old Time earlier this week when nvidia-legacy-340xx-driver=340.108-1 landed and... suddenly my graphical desktop manager was so broken that I couldn't even swap to a tty and try unfucking things from there.
