Is it possible that the upgrade breaks something > that was working? it can be, but it depends on many other things, like how you have partitioned your drive. it can break working things. > I do not have weird things on my machine. Just bugzilla, a couple of > mysql databases, and apache with various virtual servers. The upgrade > will not change my configuration, right? again depends. what are your partitions like? > Will it fix existing problems? For example, I am not able to start > xwindows. The graphical terminal displays a gray background and the > cross mouse pointer. errr, that rather sounds like x, but without a windows manager choosen. how are you starting x? do you have kdm or gdm installed and have you tried those? - -- "Gartner recommends that enterprises... immediately investigate alternatives to [Microsoft] IIS, including moving Web applications to Web server software from other vendors, such as iPlanet and Apache... [which] have much better security records than IIS... Gartner remains concerned that viruses and worms will continue to attack IIS until Microsoft has released a completely rewritten, thoroughly and publicly tested, new release of IIS." -- John Pescatore, Information Security Strategies, Gartner Group, 2001-09-19. shane Profile at: http://dmoz.org/profiles/shen.html Proud to be a DMOZ editor since 10-98 Mandrake Users Club Member http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/club/ Registered linux user #101606 @ http://counter.li.org/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE9JI5ABwq+ZwvIN/oRAqZ1AJ0fGL56Bzb5s6UJ9KzZuRveTViUWwCfS/Fr 49YPuyHbbkXQ0Nu5tCoJLWw= =IR7f -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
