I'm having odd problems with a fresh potato install. I installed from
the 2.2.7-2000-02-13 floppies yesterday (03/02/2000) and this is not an

I seem to have a corrupted file on this system which is preventing me
from upgrading manpages-dev:

Woo.

I have a machine here running a beta of Hamm, probably from before Hamm
was frozen. I'm trying to get apt going on this machine so that I can
upgrade it to slink.
I manually installed apt, libc6, libstdc++2.9 and such from slink and
then resolved as many of the conflicts and such by han

No xdm here. If I try to start X in 8bpp, I get garbage and have to zap the
server.
Sorry to follow up on my own post. I did attach my XF86Config but I either
screwed up, or something ate the second attachment to my previous message.
Here's the config...

Clue required, please. I've never had XF86 give me an error like this one.
I just completed transferring my existing hardware to a new case/motherboard.
If it matters, I went from a P90 to a dual P133. I moved over the disks, RAM
and boards - everything but the P90 motherboard.
Everything works

I came home to find my workstation thrashing - errors are appended to this
message. Kerneld was consuming over 50meg of memory, so I bounced it,
which seems to have cleared the problem up.
Overmind is a P90, 2.0.32 and is fairly well synced with Hamm. Modutils

The current hamm xmcd package seems to not like running on my machine.
First, it complains about having insufficient privlidges:

I'd like to upgrade to unstable, following the howto, but I can't seem
to find the package ncurses3.0_1.9.9e-2. The latest rev I can find is
ncurses3.0_1.9.9e-1, which is what's already installed on my system.
Where can I find -2? Thanks!

Awhile back, I bought RedHat Motif when I thought that I'd be running
their distribution. Well, I discovered that I liked Debian better and
that alien, as shipped with Debian 1.2 would install the motif RPMs.
I've since upgraded my installation by hand to 1.3 (without using deselect)
