From what I remember you're generally not supposed to run any sort of updates while in an X environment; If I were you I'd quit X and change to TTY1 before administering any changes (Especially if the changes are X.org or libX related) -- If programmers deserve to be rewarded for creating innovative programs, by the same token they deserve to be punished if they restrict the use of these programs. - Richard Stallman
