/var/lib/dpkg/available (as the path implies) is used by dpkg (and

install/remove packages.
So running 'dselect update' should correct this file. But
Updaing my testing server and I get this:

The following packages will be upgraded:

Not too bothered about it though as the 15" monitor is on its way out
anyway!
Thanks for all the help. :)

/tips on what I can do to get it actually working? Would it
be better to run dpkg-reconfigure on the xerver to get the required
setup or what?

Does anyone have a source for X4.3?
I have debs for ATI drivers but they are not compatible with 4.2
which is what I am running. Cheers!

rupt errors on boot too. Doesn't seem to
be a problem for me. I wouldn't worry about it personally.

"apt-cache search
" is your friend.
Either that or install aptitude, a rather better dpkg front end.

It does actually as xdm or whatever is controlling X... xdm starts
up X and when you kill xdm it kills X
Done it myself on my machine... ;)

off installing a Debian packaged later 2.4 kernel source
and compiling that or what?
I'm presuming theres something in the source code of the ATI kernel
driver that can be changed to make it work...
I'm thinking of completely re-installing and starting again
though....

updated the mod-init-tools from their homepage as noted on
various web searches I did. Nothing seems to have worked.
I'm doing this to get my ATI Radeon 9800Pro to work with X4.2.1.1
which is the latest one that apt can find!
Any help would be appreciated :)
