Okay here is the strange part: deb ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian unstable main contrib non-free is on both my laptop and desktop. The laptop updates normally but the desktop complains Err ftp://ftp.debian.org unstable/contrib Release Data transfer failed, server said 'Data connection error: Input/output error ' Get:9 ftp://ftp.debian.org unstable/non-free Packages [73.3kB] Get:10 ftp://ftp.us.debian.org unstable/non-free Release Get:11 ftp://nonus.debian.org unstable/non-US/main Release Ign ftp://ftp.us.debian.org unstable/non-free Release Ign ftp://nonus.debian.org unstable/non-US/main Release Hit ftp://nonus.debian.org unstable/non-US/contrib Sources 94% [2 unstable/main gzip 4259840] [9 unstable/non-free 0/73.3kB 0%] 127kB/s 0s gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file Err ftp://ftp.debian.org unstable/main Packages Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1) Anyone have an idea what this problem is? thanks -- Andrew
