I keep trying... I ran 'apt-get install adept' from a root shell, and it told me that adept was already at the current level. It then went on to tell me that there were 5 packages not fully installed, and it gave me 5 'setting up...' messages for x11-common, libxau6, libxdmcp6, libxcb1, libxcb-xlib0. I went back to adept, and attempted a 'full upgrade' which presented 5 install, 205 upgrade. As it began, I clicked on 'show detail' just before the 'invalid nice value' popped up.
The last lines in the 'show details window are: Preconfiguring packages ...
