Preparing to replace xserver-xorg 6.8.2.dfsg.1-10 (using .../xserver-xorg_6.8.2.dfsg.1-10_i386.deb) ... Unpacking replacement xserver-xorg ... Setting up xserver-xorg (6.8.2.dfsg.1-10) ... System startup links for /etc/init.d/xserver-xorg already exist. may be this is aprt of the problem, that only the existence of the link is checked, but not if the file pointed at exists at all... I am going to remove the symlink and see what happens... worse can't get than it already is. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
