purge every gnome package. removing task-* packages does not remove anything. dpkg -l | grep ximian <purge everything listed -- apt-get --purge remove blah blah blah> dpkg -l | grep helix <purge everything listed -- apt-get --purge remove blah blah blah> then try a apt-get install task-gnome with your sources.list NOT including ximian/helix. -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
