You sent just to me. I'm sending back to the list and CC'ing you. On Monday 19 April 2010 16:27:08 B. Alexander wrote: > Thank you for this.

I used dselect roughly once before my head exploded. Though, some do really like the dselect interface (or at least are used to it) and you can "theme" aptitude look very much like dselect.

Check your kernel logs and see if anything bad is happening in the kernel or hardware. If not, it is probably a aptitude bug. You can try installing the version from Lenny or testing if the one from unstable is broken. I use the one from Lenny for handling mixed systems, so it should be able to handle most things. I do know that apt-get/aptitude is one of the first things you should upgrade when moving oldstable->stable as the resolver in the newer versions handles the multiple transitions easily. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
