Hi,
I've tried to do an apt-get upgrade on the core after it had been turned off for 2 weeks and got the following:

=================================================================

Have since narrowed it down to:
/var/lib/dpkg/info/pluto-orbiter.postinst configure
Which returned the locking fault listed above.

Closer inspection shows most of the symlinks in /usr/pluto/locks/ dont point to valid files..??
I've looked around and tried editing the scripts, but it still fails.

Any and all help would be appreciated.

Cheers

Hi, I've been wandering for a while wether the default audio (music) player for Linuxmce comes with an ability to show visual effects to the music being played? Like winamp, media player, and many Linux media players already do? All I get when playing music is the flickr screen saver and a play list on the left 

Cheers
