If you are going to run sid, it is worth using aptitude and making sure you have apt-listbugs installed. Then before completing the upgrade you get the chance to 'hold' the packages that have open bugs outstanding by aborting the upgrade and marking the guilty packages by pressing '='. To get your networking up you could try # /etc/init.d/networking restart ... if it doesn't work let us know the output of # ifconfig Regards Clive -- www.clivemenzies.co.uk ... ...strategies for business -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
