The only reason I got this problem was because I followed explicit 
instructions from the kernel group to install the 3.18-rc5 kernel. Now 
my graphics is screwed up.  Even removing the 3.18-rc5 kernel has not 
fixed that.  Your team created this problem, so I would appreciate some 
assistance at fixing it.
