Re: update issue

What error message? Have you tried installing the package using apt-get? Does it actually WORK after this doubtful install?

Re: update issue

i think yes! although i can't be totally certain!

it tells me that packages could not be installed due to crappy downloaded packages or "something else i can't remember right now"

Re: update issue

also is there a diagnostic tool to see if all of the files are working ?

Re: update issue

Open a console shell and type:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install
sudo dpkg --configure -a

See if this doesn't fix the problem.
