dselect stalls
Hello,
I am running Debian UNSTABLE inside a local network that uses windows 2000
(workstation) as a server with winroute controlling the proxy and a DirecPC
one way satt dish USB for access outside. My debian is 3.0 with all current
"unstable" updates. My "ONLY" problem is with "dselect" stalling!. I can
be doing just an update of the list and it will stall, I can be downloading
40MB and never stall, then I also can be pulling in 300kb and stall 10 times
during this. At first I thought it was just with the the non-us.debian site,
That showed not to be. now that a few weeks have passed I have noticed there
is nothing that is relevant about the time or server, or what service I have
running or not. I can even ping the server in another terminal at the same
time I am stalled in dselect. I can be in KDE downloading all day long and
never stall. I can pull mail, news and never stall.
I also have tried apt-spy with the same results. I am stuck here. This
system also has a RedHat 7.2 partition on it and the no problems there, I how
ever do remember RedHat 7.0 had stall issues when I first installed it. I
then switched to 7.1 and they went away.
If anyone can help with this I will be for every greatfull!
