Hi. Is this Woody, Sarge, or Sid? I noticed in another message that
you had a lot of packages that needed upgrading. In that message I
suggested you try using dist-upgrade. Stupid me forgot to ask what
version of Debian you are using.
I really need to learn to wait for the coffee to start working before I
start replying.
