Thank you. I was going to take a manual approach but yours is certainly the Debian solution so I'll use it.
But I'd still like to know HOW it got set up this way. I'm certain I didn't change the start configurations, I simply downloaded the .deb from stable. But I think if it did this to everyone we'd have a lot more volume on the list over it. So what did I do wrong?
