Adept Wont Open

[Cheese Roller]

Everytime I try to open Adept it says that Adept is already running.

I restarted my computer and had the same issue even after bootup.

What do I do?

Press Alt+F2 and run the command:

kdesu ksysguard

Look through the list and close all running cases of Adept.

And if that doesn't work, then:

If Adept won't restart after a package install and
reports:
"Another process is using the packaging system
database (probably some other adept
application or apt-get or aptitude)..."
Open a konsole and run the following:
sudo dpkg --configure -a

If that does not work, then run:
sudo apt-get -f install

The following are not required to fix the problem:
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get autoclean
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install

None of these have worked.

Hmmmm. What responses are given after each of the commands? Execute the fist, copy and paste the results. Do the same for each of the other commands.

Well, I wish I could tell you. Now the computer locks up whenever I open Adept.

Well, don't open Adept.

Really, reboot, don't open Adept, but open a console shell and execute each command, one at a time, and copy/paste the results of each.
