Install the Debain version of isapnp, available from any mirror site at /debian/dists/stable/main/binary-i386/base/isapnptools_1.16-4.1.deb Just so you know, the Redhat package manager, rpm, is also available in Debian format. The file name is rpm_2.5.1-6.deb. Also, you can search for packages by name in dselect (searching for 'isapnp' would have avoided this whole alien/rpm thing). You can also search for them by name and description at http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages noah PGP public key available at http://lynx.dac.neu.edu/home/httpd/n/nmeyerha/mail.html or by 'finger -l [EMAIL PROTECTED]' This message was composed in a 100% Microsoft free environment. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBNu50o4dCcpBjGWoFAQGRdQQApOCK5fhN3Oj1hqlBbDfmF6e0tgyE09p5 kUhIfQv81xm4zOspv9ej78rAGaojNZpbPCrAcBKcAfOJeYH/VuGLR25pO2isFNx/ 5PEdBJMExgp3Rk2CbqJ0JGPr05EdPmCyWF8igWmVztQaeoN0kZ4rXUVNsNz3GR45 n/eOxpOEH6E= =j9/w -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
