That's a nicely written article, thanks. When I say "use cooperatively" I mean that the software that you run cooperates with other people who use the same software to make a service that works. Media Goblin and Diaspora work this way, I think. If we had such a thing for search, surely

I've never ever performed a GNU/Linux system upgrade. What I would try is to test the live CD/USB you used to install. I mean maybe you didn't check, and it's corrupted. Else, maybe it's just a matter of upgrading something (the system or even the kernel). Hopefully. That's all I've got :/
