[Please CC me in all replies, as I don't read debian-user] Hi.
I needed to do a quick install of a linux box today, and I've choosed to install CorelLinux, with a full install. Then I upgraded it to frozen potato, using apt, and I've come across some problems[1]: 1) cron package didn't configured sucessfully, as the CorelLinux cron package refused to be upgraded. This caused all packages depending of the new cron to be half-installed/half-configured until I fixed it. 2) When I restarted my machine, the mouse (PS/2) refused to work both in X and in the console. I've reconfigured it with gpm, and it started working in the console, but not in X[2]. 3) After the reboot, the kdm won't let me login, complainig about all the user/passwords I give. I can logon using the console perfectly though. So, as anyone seen this? 1 and 2 don't bother me, I've reported them so that others can see it. 3 OTOH I need to fix. I have a feeling that this is a problem with some pam modules/rotines and the kdm. Does anybody have an ideia as to what can I try? Thanks, Pedro Guerreiro [1] I'm not using the system now, so the report is how I remember it. [2] After I leave, a colleague of mine phoned me reporting that this was fixed, but I haven't checked. -- Pedro Guerreiro UIN: 48533103 Universidade do Algarve (EST) - Campus da Penha - 8000 Faro - PORTUGAL GPG: 0xCF32D4E7 F506 DDF4 0B92 247D B8E6 13BA A6DB 9E3A CF32 D4E7
