Finally BROKE GUTSY ( you can chuckle now Matt )
After re-booting no login screen, my standard Kubuntu spash screen does come
up during system boot, then the terminal output goes to text, finally
resting with the text login prompt.

KDM is running by default but I get a gtk cannot open DISPLAY ( even though
I manually set the DISPLAY parameters. I tried switching to GDM but then I
get xserver errors.

X.org is at 7.2,  ubuntu-desktop was installed, kubuntu-desktop is still
broken with dependency issues.

I kept an output log ( via script command ) but it is too large to post
here.

If I try apt-get update and then upgrade and/or dist-upgrade as of last
night zero files are to be installed zero updated and zero removed.

taking a another look after work today... anyone who wants details ( log
files ) let me know.
really this is fun reminds me of the 1st time I installed Slackware 1.0 from
a floppy using a 300baud dial-up modem and downloading from a BBS.
