well, things went *mostly* well with the upgrade. but this evening a started getting
*many* segfaults re. artsd, at the rate of one every few seconds. each throws a window
that grabs focus, making impossible even to see what's going on. we're talking
hundreds of them. i can't even logout!

Can't help you with the segfaults, but to shut it down you should be able to
ctrl-alt-F2 to a shell, login, and 'init 6' to reboot. Just in case you
didn't already know that.

nope. nothing happens until the damned popups are satisfied. had to resort to the brb.
of course, ubuntu *did install a load of crap, lest anyone ever look at a plain text
screen. i had forgotten that three-quarters of a ubuntu install is unconfiguring splash
screens and getting rid of crap alternative desktops.
goin back in. pray for me.

Did your upgrade omit both
base-installer/install-recommends=false
and
APT::Install-Recommends "false";
???
What reason is there for a TDE user to install it on top of paternalistic
Blingbuntu instead of a straight no-frills minimal Debian anyway?
I can't remember ever having trouble from artsd with TDE on Debian. Maybe one or
both of these will help:
