Big red switch work now completed. Because. Tried clean Kubuntu install... worked fine until Plasma started, then screen became hashed (differently, but still hashed). Repeated process with Ubuntu with same results: similar hashing. So concluded that it must be something in the hardware that di

System now totally hosed. I think the partial kernel install screwed up something horrible. Cannot get Unity to run. Can get Gnome running at about 800x600 (on a 1920x1080 screen), but that is about it. Cannot find anywhere to get the screen to reset. Nvidia thinks I do not have an Xdriver
