Hi folks. I decided to try updating my test system from SUPER to SLICK based upon the process outlined in earlier e-mail. I had already installed SUPER 10.0 final on the machine with no problems.
I had to spend some time puzzling out the requirements for /etc/apt/sources.list and finally arrived at the following for testing: rpm ftp://ftp4.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/apt/ SuSE/10.0-i386 rpmkeys base java update extra suser-jengelh suser-guru usr-local-bin suser-jogley suser-agirardet packman packman-i686 wine suse-people suse-projects security rpm ftp://ftp4.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/apt SuSE/10.0-i386 suser-agirard Note that the first 4 lines are actually on one line. At the command prompt, and running as root I ran "apt-get update". It ran to completion with the following message: W: Duplicate sources.list entry ftp://ftp4.gwdg.de SuSE/10.0-i386/suser-agirardet pkglist (/var/lib/apt/lists/ftp4.gwdg.de_pub_linux_suse_apt_SuSE_10.0-i386_base_pkglist.suser-agirardet) W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems That didn't seen like much of a problem so I continued on with the next step of "apt-get install kynaptic libxine1" I got the following errors: slopoke:/etc/apt # apt-get install kynaptic libxine1 Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done The following packages will be upgraded libxine1 The following NEW packages will be installed: kynaptic 1 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 removed and 32 not upgraded.

Done Building Dependency Tree... Done Package kernel is a virtual package provided by: kernel-smp 2.6.13-15.ck6.SUPER.1 kernel-default 2.6.13-15.ck6.SUPER.1 [Installed] kernel-debug 2.6.13-15 kernel-bigsmp 2.6.13-15 You should explicitly select one to install. E: Package kernel is a virtual package with multiple good providers. I just exited at this point as it appears that the proper kernel is installed. I then continued with the next step running "apt-get dist-upgrade" with the following results: Get:9 ftp://ftp4.gwdg.de SuSE/10.0-i386/suse-projects MozillaFirefox 1.4.1-1.1 [8376kB] Err ftp://ftp4.gwdg.de SuSE/10.0-i386/suse-projects MozillaFirefox 1.4.1-1.1 Unable to fetch file, server said 'Failed to open file. ' That sums up my experiences in upgrading to SLICK. The system after these changes is working properly. I you wish, I can re-install SUPER and try the SLICK update again after these problems have been looked at. I hope this can help in clearing up these problems.
