===========================
If I might add, to the OP, if you'd like you can "upgrade" to a
current release of Hoary (the work in progress, if you will, as it's
being developed) by changing all references to "warty" in
/etc/apt/sources.list to "hoary". Do a sudo apt-get update, followed
by a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade. You'll be running an embryonic Hoary,
so to speak, that I find quite stable. I run the upgrade every few
days to keep current. To be honest, many would caution you that this
is risky on a production box, but I haven't had a single real problem
yet getting work done on hoary.
HTH,
Mike
