This is your annual reminder to do a snapshot (timeshift or whatever you prefer) before doing relatively minor changes to your system.
I was supposed to be in bed now, but instead I am stuck troubleshooting xorg refusing to start after an apt-get dist-upgrade.
And as far as friendly reminders go, I should’ve given myself an unfriendly reminder beforehand, as it’s not the first time…
UPDATE: removed nvidia 545. All my homies hate nvidia 545. 535 4 lyf!
Is it dumb that I only backup my docs and anything else I think is important? I can rebuild fairly quickly if something would happen. I ask since I know that people backup a variety of their directories
If you’re comfortable, you’re fine. Anything more would just be to speed up the rebuild, so it’s less important if you don’t mind taking the time.
