Greetings Oliver,

Thank you very much. I was afraid i crashed the system upon seeing
the errors from synaptic manager. I am a newbie to Ubuntu/Mythbuntu,
system was up and running on 9.04,.. until i had the notion to upgrade
to 9.10 thus the errors install.- how do i build a "thin client environment"
correctly?... i won't install the diskless mythbuntu client...
