1) I was fooling around with ALSA tonight and uninstalled the kernel-module-alsa package. I tried reinstalling it (also the alsa-kmdl package), but got an error like this:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
kernel-module-alsa-2.4.22-1.2199.nptl: Depends: /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.22-1.2199.nptl but it is not installable


Do you have RedHat's updates in the sources.list?

You're right, I had that disabled. I re-enabled it.

2) I did an apt-get dist-upgrade tonight and now my rpm database seems to be hosed. Tried finding a solution on Google but didn't come up with much. Here's what I get why I try to do anything related to rpm:

# rpm -qa | grep kmdl
rpmdb: Berkeley DB library configured to support only DB_PRIVATE environments
error: db4 error(22) from dbenv->open: Invalid argument
error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - Invalid argument (22)
error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm


Check out http://bugzilla.atrpms.net/show_bug.cgi?id=384:

export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1
rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__*
rpm --rebuilddb
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
export -n LD_ASSUME_KERNEL

Ended up trying that last night, but I never had any files matching /var/lib/rpm/__* anyway. I assumed an even earlier kernel and it didn't work. Tried your approach this morning and it worked at first, but then a bit later I was getting the DB_PRIVATE error once again.


I have given up and started a new FC3 install. Having problems with the nvidia module though, so I'll start a new thread :-(

Thanks for your help, Axel.
