      @travisdh1 Didn't know about that. Will have to keep that in the back pocket. I restored and overwrote the VM from yesterday's backups.

      Using ctrl+shift+function key gives you a different console window. Can be a real life-saver in situations like that. The only annoying thing is that different distributions use different default consoles. RedHat distros normally use f1, I know Ubuntu uses a different one, but forget what it is.

        No one cares about Ubuntu anyway.

              I internalize it to much, it'll all escape at some point, you've all been warned!

                I installed VLC, performed update (nothing there) and rebooted, it happened again. Did the CTRL + ALT + F2, and I am able to login. What do I do now?

                    That sucks. Were you using the default repo?

                      Ubuntu is Alt+1 and consecutively up to 8.

                        Nope, RPM Fusion because that's what their instructions said to do.

                        Worked fine in 28. @JaredBusch said he got it to work. Do you recall how you did it Jared?

                          I uninstalled VLC first and by the end of the day VLC was in the packages again.
