You must have stopped the upgrade before all the packages were
downloaded and before the installation began. You probably have some
packages from unstable in /var/cache/apt/archives.

I just tried exactly what Mohammed said he did and my testing/unstable
machine wanted to remove 176 packages and downgrade 586 to stable. I
also tried it with apt.conf set to testing with the same results. The
preferences file seems to have priority over the apt.conf file.

I always use the -s option for apt-get dist-upgrade to show me what will
happen before I actually perform the upgrade. I use gnome from unstable
and for the past week dist-upgrade wants to remove gnome and a few
others so I used apt-get upgrade.

After upgrading openoffice I have no fonts in the menus but I do in the
document. My XF86Config-4 is correct and I am using the defoma TrueType
fonts.
If I run it as su everything is fine.
If I run it as sudo it is the same as running as user.
What's wrong and how can I fix this?

I think mondo might work for you. It's in testing.

I had this problem a few weeks ago. I also could not login as any user
by any means, however I could login as root. After about a week and a
few responses to my post here I gave up, backed up all home directories
and reinstalled woody. I would love to know what happened and how to
fix it.

It seems that it must have been removed from the archive between your
installs. 2.4.17 does not exist on the archives now, only
2.4.17-b42.4. I may be wrong but it seems to me it hasn't been there
for several weeks. I would suggest installing 2.4.18.

I installed galeon a couple weeks ago. With the preferences file
apt-get will not install dependencies from unstable. What I did might
scare you, I know it did me. Rename preferences to preferences.bak and
apt-get install galeon -s just to see what it will do. For me it wanted
to upgrade some p
ftp.opera.com/pub/opera/linux/505 but I don't think it does java. The
5.0-1 on their website may be newer, I don't know.

Is xscreensaver running. Try running xscreensaver-demo to change the
settings. I don't know why you would not be able to ping unless maybe
the hard drive was powering down, but that should be controlled in the
bios.

I had this problem and I had '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/' in the
Files section XF86Config-4, but to get it to work I had to add
'/usr/share/fonts/type1/'. Also if I added it to the beginning of the
Files section most of my desktop fonts looked ugly, putting it at the
end fixed that.

It must be compiled into the kernel, there are other requirements also.

I've used mondo for backup and will be testing the restore on a new
laptop this weekend.

The screen shakes and I get incorrect username or password.

It seems the problem is the password is a dictionary word. Changing the
password allows login.
rd.so is a link to pam_unix.so
It's puzzling why gdm is doing this, but now the user has a better
password.
