hi and thanks so much for trying to help i tried what you said but got: Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: linux-image-2.6.36-trunk-686 : Depends: linux-base (= 2.6.36-1~experimental.1) but 2.6.32-27 is to be installed Recommends: firmware-linux-free (= 2.6.36) but 2.6.32-27 is to be installed E: Broken packages so it isn't installed also i didn't have a /etc/apt/preferences file so i created it ... is that correct?
