Below is a snip from the update of my Debian 'testing' system. I see
that there are again warnings that seem to be unresolved regarding
gconf2. I have been pondering if this should be filed as a bug report as
it is recurring though it does seem to be relative to some specific
upgrade & I'm not sure

This is not a lilo bug. The problem is that lilo's map installer
did not get run during the kernel upgrade process. The fact that
the user was able to boot his old de-installed kernel is proof of
this. The /boot/map file still pointed to the blocks in the file
system which formerly contained the

But I find it special that it does not go faster. Adobe wants everybody

I have some questions about the use of some of the services that are &
can be initiated at start up. I see these listed via the Administration
menu option, using GNOME on an up-to-date testing Debian system.
