I have been ill as well as slammed at work and not paying enough attention to the ol' blog. It looks like, from what you posted, that you aren't in the directory where you downloaded those files to. I should have been a little more clear. Change to that dir then run the command. Again I am sooo sorry I didn't respond sooner! @Jean

I upgraded from Jaunty to Karmic on my 751h last week. The i386 wasn't horrible -- I'm running 2GB. When Karmic finally appeared on my screen, I noticed an increase in lag. I decided to install UNR (a flavor I hadn't previously tried) -- a clean install and began scouring the web for the various updates to get things working smoothly again. I was disappointed to find an overwhelming number of seemingly professional web sites encouraging improper (and ultimately damaging) techniques. I think well-intentioned users copy-and-paste bad information that might work on some netbooks, ignoring the fact that the hardware configurations do vary significantly among them. And then this morning I found your web site. I'm downloading the lpia iso right now, and I'll report back how the install went. I'm crossing my fingers. This is certainly the only place that seems to have all of the details for the 751h in one place, so thank you in advance! Hey Romeo Sid Vicious!

It doesn’t work. It says arror proscessing dpkg -i psb-kernel-* no such file or directory.

What can I do?

In my travels across the tubez I found a lot of "oh, gma500...you can't do that". I say "YOU can't do that, but don't lump me in with you, asshole!". I also ran across the very spread out "can-do's". Again, thanks for putting this all in once place. page bookmarked. You did it your way. Sid would be proud. thank you for this.
