On Wed, Apr 28, 2004 at 01:25:15PM +0200, steef saidhi out there,got some weird experiences with a net-install of sarge this morning. using debian-installer_beta_3.got lots of broken packages from two (dutch) servers."broken packages"? Ones that couldn't be installed, or ones that had bugs?somebody with the same experiences??? what has happened to the packages[-list] on these (all??) servers??Unless a mirror is out of date (which shouldn't happen, but sometimes does), everyone sees the same set of packages. You can try ftp.debian.org as your primary source if you want to rule that out.
well...broken packages: packages that could not be installed. i could p.e. not get X going with startx or gdm as root. mostly i use debian console-wise (tty 1, tty 2 etc.) not even that was possible.
ok i'll try debian.org (...one more time) (before i never had this kind of trouble)\\thnx
steef the morning after... ...and, so i did: sarge (kde 3.2) is up and running again. thanks rob, ch., steef --To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmaster@lists.debian.org
