Andre,
I assume that you're launching synaptic from the kde menu?

I installed apt and synaptic on my SuSE 8.0 system. Apt are working fine, but synaptic does not do any actual installations/removals, etc.
It will download the packages and then when it needs to install them, it pops up a progress dialog and freezes up.
Try to launch it from the command line, e.g. as follows: xhost +; su -c "DISPLAY=:0.0 /usr/sbin/synaptic"; xhost -
Does this work better?
Hi Richard, Today Synaptic is up to it's old tricks agian. I have launched it in all possible ways and it won't do an actual rpm remove. Funny. It worked fine yesterday. The only thing that happened is that my box froze again during the night. apt-get still works fine. -- Andre Truter Software Engineer Registered Linux user #185282 ICQ #40935899 AIM: trusoftzaf http://www.trusoft.za.net <-------------------------------------------------> < The box said: Requires Windows 95 or better... > < So I installed Linux > <------------------------------------------------->
