I seem to have screwed up my system by changing apt-lines from
helix-gnome to sid, and partially de-installing gnome. Now, whenever I
try to apt-get install anything, I get the following. Can anyone help?
aurelius:/home/ocorrain# apt-get install kppp

Hello all,
I'm trying to run a nfs system, mounting two remote partitions on each
computer at boot time. Every computer except one is working
perfectly. The offender prints
mount: RPC: Program not registered
when I try to mount the filesystem. This sounds like something really
trivial, but I don
