It's nice when that happens!
BN: Laptop cooked its graphics chip a little while back.
GN: I've found magic incantations to disable graphics and use the internal to CPU chipset one.
BN: Though I can log in, the graphics are slow, colour crap and brightness control broken.
More BN: Laptop is old and repair seems unlikely. I've got better things to spend my money on than a whole new one.
GN: Found old non-laptop and got it set up. The stuff I use all the time is mostly there again (though I need a "remember the password" session in email).
More GN: Tapatalk is all very well, but it's nice to be back here in a browser
