This is my sources.list
then I did: apt-get update, apt-get dist-upgrade (and then it was updating hundreds of packages for half an hour)

That looks fine. Try updating manually by launching synaptic and selecting "mark all updates". Fyi, here's my own sources.list:

thanks
I don't get it. Everything is up-to-date and I still have 6.18 kernel

jay73 07-23-2007 07:12 PM

Has your sources list actually been updated yet? apt-get update?

rickh 07-23-2007 07:51 PM

The kernel doesn't update with a dist-upgrade, you have to do it separately.

# aptitude install linux-image-2.6.21-2-686
# aptitude install linux-headers-2.6.21-2-686

Substitute "686" with your architecture

No, not straight away, you're absolutely right. But the newer one came in with all the other updates as soon as I ran apt-get update after drawing up my sources.list. Doing the update manually is bound to work, of course.

Thanks very much guys, It's working!!!!!

I updated the kernel to 2.6.22.1-686 then, like you said, changed the sources to sid, then installed everything, subsequently changed the sources back to lenny, and everything is ok, rendering as well.

Even mplayer has stopped crashing (bug connected with nvidia-glx)

thanks for your help
