@Jack, there are millions of reasons why X might not start. The one that

a problem, that was fixed in a later version. This bug affected all

This bug is closed, and your bug is different, so you don't have to
comment in this one. You should open a new bug (or search if anyone else
has the same issue and posted another bug to avoid duplicates), and keep
all the discussion there. Only if you think this bug isn't really
solved,
Sounds like you've stumbled onto a new issue. The original issue was in
the C libraries, and was fixed.
Also take a look at Xorg.0.log.old is Xorg.0.log is garbage.

No icons, no taskbars, desktop background is there. When I click
somewhere the taskbars seem to appear very briefly and then disappear

Eric,
What do you mean by empty desktop? Is there icons but no taskbars? no
icons or taskbars? no desktop image?
I had a blank taskbar, but all I needed to do was click where I knew
something was and it reappeared.
Try that, if not then its probably a different bug and should be
reported separa
Upgraded my laptop just now (after downgrading the libc6 packages

Locking them in Synaptic will only effect upgrades done through

There definitely needs to be a rollback feature, but not one specific to
