Have you tried resolving these explicitly? apt-get install xfce4-systemload-plugin xfce4-goodies \ libxfce4util-1 libxfcegui4-3 Did you check what version of each package is available and that the versions satisfy the dependencies? e.g., using something like this: apt-cache madison xfce4-systemload-plugin xfce4-goodies Daniel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
