Ok, I did this. It did work just fine > > download that file to any directory, and use dpkg -i to install it. and here is where the problem starts. I did: dpkg -i gs-esp_7.07.1-9_i386.deb in etc/apt/ where I downloaded the file. I did it here since I could not find a more logical location that I would remember. I know this probably sloppy, ohh well I am a begginer. and this is the mess I got: dpkg: considering removing gs in favor of gs-esp... dpkg: yes, will remove gs in favor of gs-esp dpkg: considering removing cupsys-pstoraster in favor of gs-esp ... dpkg no, cannot remove cupsys-pstoraster (--auto-deconfire will help): cuspsys depends on cupsys-pstoraster cupsys-pstoraster is to be removed dpkg: regarding gs-esp_7.07.1-9_i386.deb containing gs-esp: gs-esp conflicts with cupsys-pstoraster cupsys-pstoraster (version 1.1.14-5woody10) is installed. dpkg: error processing gs-esp_7.07.1-9_i386.deb (--install): Errors were encoutered while processing: gs-esp_7.70.1_9_i386.deb What is this? I am trying to install a version that is different than my kernel? How do I find out what kernel I am running (is ti woody or sarge? what is sarge anyways?) How do I fix this? Did I just damage something? hmmm way too many questions... Please help. I am lost. I am reading as much as I can. thank you. ed. >Brett On Thu, 28 Oct 2004 22:52:19 -0500, Eduard Breuer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Brett Kelly wrote: > > >The best way would be to download the package itself > > > so I can dowload it via ftp?
