</I>I now have a functioning system, but not without some jiggery-pokery
:<i>-) The good news, though, is that I can almost certainly point to
</I>the problem and solution.
Normally I update my systems almost daily, but for reasons not
relevant here, the netbook hasn't been switched on for about a week,
so there were a number of updates waiting.
I started with the full update, which failed, part-way through, as
expected. What I didn't realise, though, was that it had failed
before updating the kernel (and, as it happens, half way through
updating KDE which became unusable).
Basically I followed the hints you gave Charles, and finally got
things running again.
I would suggest, then, that you make "update your kernel and reboot"
the very first instruction, before updating everything else.
Undoubtedly there will be others who, for whatever reason, don't have
the absolute latest kernel, and don't realise that an update is needed.
