Last night at boot the system checked (after 30 boots or so) my /usr partition. It dropped me to console; I did the suggested fsck /dev/hda8. After the lengthy check it came up; but with some errors; like screwed up XFCE configuration (some apps missing); some screwed up fonts; and "can't set the locale; make sure $LC_* and $LANG are correct" when I 'man foo'. For the rest it works well as far as I have tried.
How to repair the system best without re-installing ? I read the doc for apt; dpkg; but didn't find an unambiguous check / repair option; like I had used before for RPMs. Is there any, so that I can make out damaged packages ? What to do to get the system repaired, that otherwise boots fine ? Uwe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
