OK, seems to finally be fixed, though does not remember where I put icons upon reboot, though I know this to be a bug...
Stuff that seemed to work
Boot in to Low Graphics mode
Control+ALT+F1
Code:
apt-get clean && apt-get autoclean && apt-get autoremove
Code:
dpkg –l grep nvidia
lists everything installed for nvidia
then remove everything except
nvidia-cg-toolkit (if it or equivellent exists)
nvidia-common
Code:
sudo apt-get purge nvidia-xxxx
(where xxxx is anything from the list)
Code:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-common
Code:
sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
Code:
apt-get clean && apt-get autoclean && apt-get autoremove
Code:
apt-get update && apt-get install -f
AND/OR
