Well, I have used aptitude 3 times now and it works just fine. I can
see what is happening with aptitude and you don't using the GUI software.
Also I was having trouble with vlc loosing it's audio after a few
hours. I fixed that with aptitude remove vlc, and then aptitude install
vlc on this Hardy computer. It fixed the problem :-)
