Hi Jack, You have to edit your sources.list to add the universe section - it is not a core package. I think Ubuntu may have a tool for configuring your package sections.
gmfsk is in universe in edgy (6.10) also. Debian and its derivatives (including Ubuntu) are much more robust with regard to partial upgrades. No reinstalls required - ever. cheers Hamish On Tue, Dec 05, 2006 at 01:49:27PM -0800, Jack Heller wrote: > Thanks again Hamish, > I attempted to get/install gmfsk but am using 6.06 Dapper.
