Intersting. The nvidia driver was installed before I upgraded. But you are
correct. This package (xserver-xorg-video-sis) was installed, but was
marked as "to be manually configured". I ran dpk-rconfigure --force
xserver-xorg-video-sis, and I will see if that fixes the issue this
evening, when I get home.

Thanks for the help!!

BTW, is there a way to see if there are more unconfgured packages?
