Hi, I'm having major problems upgrading from slink to potato (stable to unstable apt sources). After one of the packages is being setup, I get a whole list of stuff like this: depmod: /lib/modules/2.0.36/pcmcia SOMETHING.o is not owned by root
Then after something related to PCMCIA gets installed, I get a shorter list of maybe eight /dev/tty* stuff not working with one of those being my mouse. What's going on? I've upgraded from slink to potato before without problems and with these last three times it's impossible. Now my network card, support for mounting vfat systems, and a lot of other things (again, the /dev/tty part where my mouse is) get disabled in the process. I *need* that network card because I have to have it for my Road Runner cable connection. This is incredibly frustrating because I've posted a message about this depmod... stuff a few days ago and didn't get any responses. I've said this before and I'll say it again: on the Red Hat mailing lists, as far as I could tell, *every* message gets at least one response. Here several posts get skipped over every day. This is the type of computer and network card that I have: Pentium 233 w/ MMX 128MB RAM NE2000 compatible network card Again, I haven't had problems with upgrading until the last three times that I tried it in the past week or so. Before that, the last time I had installed Debian was at least a month away from now. Probably closer to two months. -- Bart Szyszka [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ:4982727 B Grafyx http://www.bgrafyx.com L.J.R. Engineering http://www.ljreng.com PHP Interest Group http://www.gigabee.com/pig/
