Hi, I'm trying to update EMC2 but I can't get the modem to work. What's up with dpkg that won't let me update packages? Specifically I loaded the wrong driver package for a conexant modem and it doesn't work. I downloaded another package and it grumbles about a conflict with the dysfunctional driver and won't let me update it. I really hate that stupid crap! The install documentation tells me how to uninstall tar and rpm packages but I can't uninstall a dpkg. Even as root I can't delete the driver files. I'm trying to like gnome, ubuntu and dpkg but if it keeps this up I will probably fail at liking them. So far the only way I have figured out to fix a broken package is to reinstall the system. That seems like it is not very smart to me and there has to be a better way. What's the trick?
