Hello,

I have installed LM 7.1 (Helium) on our new dual Petium machine
with no trouble. However, upgrading another four systems from
LM 6.1 (Cassini) to the same 7.1 is giving us some problems:

The first attempt was making an upgrade in graphical mode. This
is a 'test' machine, so with 6.1 I installed all the stuff. For
upgrading I choose 'expert' and 'developer'. I select the
spanish keyboard. All the upgrade process seems to be running
fine, but, after rebooting, the keyboard in console mode is not
the spanish one. Making 'startx' to start KDE (as before) also
fails with some "error in loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.2.9:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" lines,
for each kde command failed. The problem is not related with X
because as a normal user I can run Gnome, but not KDE. The
keyboard in Gnome is the correct one, spanish.

Also, talk and httpd were running fine with 6.1, but not in 7.1

Just to give another try, I did a new attempt with another machine.
This time I used text installation (after F1 key). However, choosing
the "Spanish (modern sorting)" language, I get a "unable to find file
es-latin1.kmap in archive /usr/share/keymaps.cz2" message. I continue
the upgrade, anyway, choosing 'automatic upgrade'. After finishing,
the keyboard problem arises also on this machine. (I have not still
checked for the KDE problem).

I should upgrade other machines but these are production systems, so I
can't run any risks. Should I follow another upgrade path to put 7.1 on
our systems? Any help with the problems above?

Thanks in advance,
Jos� Alfonso.
