I tried to upgrade again today

I tried to save as much output as possible this time. I'll try to be more
clear now using this forumla:

from -> to: result (Attached files showing output of this)

For some reason the segfaults dont show up in the term.log and history.log
from apt, so i was able to copy the first one from the screen using gpm


* sid -> experimental: it segfaults during installation (segfault)

* None -> experimental: it installs okay, but it segfault during bootup
(history.log, term.log, segfault1, segfault2)

* None -> sid: This used to segfault installing libgl1-nvidia-glx, but in
the latest upgrade in sid fixed it. Now installs okay but doesnt recognize
the driver on bootup with none of the kernels 4.x. I have to reboot into
kernel 3.10 and rebuild the driver for it to work (history.log, term.log)

Im not sure the logs are as clear as i wanted to be, so i attached most of
it...

If more info is needed tell me what do you need me to do :)

thanks!

cheers!
