System Maintenance with Linux
1. With Minor Problems --> Spend 8 hours on google only to find out it is a hardware issue, but thats ok because its the vendors fault.

2. With Major Problems --> Spend 12 hours on google only to find it since the bug is a boring one, it has remained untouched for 2 years now and will most likely only disappear when the devs decide to do their next complete re-write.

I would rather spend 12 hours on fixing something than reinstalling my whole system, which is some of the most stupid tasks I know of, and doesn't really fix the problem.
