I tried manually installing the proprietary nvidia drivers several weeks
ago using the instructions on the nvidia website for dealing with the
nouveau problem.  It did not improve things much and failed several days
later and the only way I could get 3d back up was to reinstall the
proprietary drivers through jockey.  The fail makes me suspect that part
of the nouveau weed effect may be  driven by system updates to related
parts of the system (apt wanting to uninstall so much along with nouveau
throws even more suspicion here).  Is there a detailed log of updates
somewhere on the system that could show a dependency interaction?  I
have a bad habit of letting update run on its own without watching
exactly what it is happening at every step along the way as long as the
update notes seem reasonable.
