whilst playing w/ apt-get ;-) *ahem* i seem to have stuffed up X
without breaking any dependencies which is weired . I think
i was trying to get some more fonts for gimp or somthing i now get the
following.. It complains about the alt keyword etc but they are not the
problem i didnt change anything to do w/ them and i tried commenting them
out. anyideas.. oh and root gives the same problem.
