I am testing all upgrades in VirtualBox.

The last ' Sl�vek' patches:
1. I no longer have any user images on the TDE login screen.
2. Had a hard freeze, could not ssh into box to gracefully shut or restart TDE.
3.Initially my nfs mount stopped working, works after powering down the vm from 
#2.

I am using 3.5.12 for my main workstation, upgrades to 3.5.13 have never gone 
smoothly here, smooth as in I am used to how Debian stable works.
