Hi, I have just tried upgrading the xfree by manually downloading and upgrading the xfree packages. I have downloaded all of the packages I need from Branden's ftp site ( _Thanks_ Branden for slink packages), and xfree86-common had upgraded smoothly (from 3.3.2.3a-11 version, running on slink and 2.2.10 kernel), but xbase-clients wouldn't upgrade until I removed all my fonts packages from 3.3.2.3a-11. Then it worked, but failed with the message: broken pipe (this was right after it complained about the xconsole.real file which belongs to xaw-wrapper package- I don't know if two are related). My questions: *has anyone upgraded sucessfully from 3.3.2.3a-11 to 3.3.4 on slink *did anyone tried dpkg --install <filename> to do this, or is anyone using apt only ( I may be a bit outdated here, but I like the manual installation- call me a control freak :-)) *is this a bug or is it me doing something wrong (much more likely) Any help appreciated, let me know if I left anything important out ( I didn't use xbase_* only package because I am already using a slink-approved version of xfree packages).
