Hi Debs. 4 days since upgrade. Still trying to get used to all the new stuff. Looks really cool, though, this far. The strangest thing: Dselect has vanished! (or maybe just crapped out?) Normally, I would log in as root, type dselect, and off we go installing stuff. Now, I get "bash: dselect: command not found". Ok, maybe there's some path been lost: ~#whereis dselect Dselect: /usr/bin/dselect Let's try it, then: ~#/usr/bin/dselect bash: usr/bin/dselect: Input/output error
The really weird part is, I've used it just today to install the mach64-xserver from which I'm typing this?! Along with mach64 (which I chose to install) potato wanted to install lots of stuff I'm not using, including emacs, xemacs, and a german dictionary (I don't even speak german). I chose not to install most of this, except for some gnomelibs and a few other libs, which I figured might be important. Sorry I can't tell you the exact names, I didn't write them down :-| btw, this was my first run of dselect since upgrading. Anyone? I was just getting to like dselect, weird as it is. (kind of the way you like an ugly dog ;-P) Best Regards Vitux -- "I'm not a crook" Richard Nixon Debian GNU/Linux Micro$loth-free Zone
