Well,

although it is OT, I would probably save my work to disk, install the 
utility, reboot, reload my work and continue with my freshly installed 
utility. Admitteldly I never compiled a video, never do any work without 
regularly saving the status to disk, and never do system administration 
while I have valuable things that I do not want to destroy in front of 
me ;-))

Now,
if you worked in X, then did some work on the text terminal 
(ctrl-alt-F2), then you returned and found your X to be so garbled that 
you cannot see anything, not to mention saving your valuable work, you 
do what?
This happened to me.

kind regards+back2work
