2002-09-30 Thread Malcolm-Rannirl

I just tried to upgrade from an 8.1 (Powerpack install), with a hand compiled Xfree 4.2.0 to 8.2b4, and had a whole collection of problems. I can't see most of them listed in the archive, so appologies if some of them are already known and fixed. I did an "upgrade packages only" upgrade. This
