Oops. Sorry if I got you into a mess.

You can also mean it in the most angry way possible : I do. Jaunty has been a 
horror-show. This could be because I jumped to 64bit though.

I just don't know. There are probably a few clever dpkg and aptitude commands, 
but I'd go for the knife and cut out all the bad stuff -- reinstall *if* you 
need that machine to work now. If not, then stick around for some other advice 
or a lucky break and wait for Karmik - that's pretty much my plan at the 
moment.

Good luck,
