Maybe I should have installed from a CD... instead I used update-manager to try to update my system from 7.04 (Feisty) to 7.10 (Gutsy). It took a loooong time to download all the files, then started taking even looooooooonger (yes, requiring even more Os) to actually install the files. I'm talking the better part of a day here. That should have tipped me off. Then, seemingly before all files had a chance to install fully, the update-manager window grayed out. Yep, now there's trouble.
On reboot, it thinks 7.10 is installed, and things work for the most part, but what isn't working is the nvidia driver. No nvidia driver, no compiz, no compiz, no happy. Will have to mess with this some more, or just give up, back up my home folder and some key config files, and start from scratch.
