But there is a tool called "alien" which allows you to convert rpm files into the debian supported *.deb package format. Please consult your debian documentation on how to operate this tool. A typcial debian installation commandline will look like this: dpkg -i <ati_package_name>.deb In order to override complaints (which might be caused by an already installed package "xlibmesa3" that also provides the file libGL.so.1.2) please use this installation command line: dpkg -i --force-overwrite <ati_package_name>.deb -- HTH regards gebhard _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list XFree86@xxxxxxxxxxx http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
