Greetings all; I had not used it so far as I'm a synaptic fan, but had a power outage today, and when I rebooted it, the adept icon came up so I clicked on it, but it never completed showing me a list once it opened its screen/window. I let it sit there for a couple minutes then clicked on cancel and got a crash screen, which wasn't able to send the crash report since there is not a copy of GDB on that machine. Synaptic of coarse fired right up & replaced the 3 Linuxcnc packages with newer versions. I hope this wasn't a pre-curser to a trashed database. Has anyone had a problem with the adept-updater (or whatever its called)? Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
