Public bug reported: After running the updater and restarting my PC, the graphics dependant GUI's on my system wouldn't load. Cinnamon wouldn't load right, nor would unity. I had to drop down to ubunut 2-D. I have a Gigabyte Radeon HD 6870 graphics card installed, running AMD Catalyst13.1 display drivers. Below is the log of the update I ran before restarting my computer.
