Has a pale horse, but hopefully is not a pale rider.

Did.

How?

  1. I had a PPA that had newer versions of my GPU drivers than what's normally available in Ubuntu.
  2. I was experiencing random system freezes which I guessed was related to the drivers from the above PPA.
  3. I removed the drive packages from the PPA, but apparently doing so also removed some Xorg/system components, which may have also removed the package for my desktop.
  4. I removed the PPA by  deleting its sources.list file
  5.  I reinstalled the graphics drivers at a more stable version.
  6. I  rebooted and found that I couldn't boot to my desktop anymore.

I booted into a terminal and tried to re-install the kubuntu-desktop package, but I wasn't able to since there were some packages that were held to their version from the removed PPA.

I ended up fixing it by re-adding the PPA, then doing what I should have done in the first place removing it using ppa-purge. Then I could reinstall kubuntu-desktop.

Will know that I am actually quite pale (I think I posted a pic in the photo section a month or two ago)

Is also really pale.

Honestly the only thing that's preventing me from looking 100% like a vampire is the fact that I have slight olive coloring in my skin and that (unfortunately) the canines I had pulled two years ago haven't fully come in yet.
