I'm using testing, and yesterday did an apt-get update then upgrade, and subsequently lost both sound, network, and boot options. I've fixed gdm and gotten the network back, and sound is working kind of - though not like before.
Upgrading GDM caused the login problem for me, but I wish I knew what package(s) I 'upgraded' that caused the network and sound to tank, but I don't. On logging into KDE as an option; are you using GDM? A recent upgrade changed the location of the Session files, or login options, from /etc/gdm/Sesssions to /etc/dm/Sessions. The files that go there are a different format, from what I can tell, as well. For gnome, which I use, the contents of the file (gnome.desktop) are: [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Name=Gnome Comment=Log into Gnome Exec=/usr/bin/gnome-session Icon= Type=Application I'm sure it's similiar for KDE, obviously the Exec line will have to change though. As to the network and Sound, both of those were loaded as kernel modules by my system in the past, and for some reason the recent apt-get upgrade removed them from the list. lsmod will tell you what you have currently loading, and modconf will let you change which modules to load. Knowing what hardware you have will help here, if you don't already. To get a clue myself I booted a knoppix cd I had lying here, and ran lsmod on it to see what it was loading for sound.
