    I'm unable to install some packages recently.

    I now continually get an error of 'Unable to install. Incompatible Package'

    Any ideas?

    Thanks,
    Steve

    Heh...stuff that I've been able to load on other 770's. AbiWord, for one. All stuff released in .deb packages that I've been able to load on different 770's...but not this one.

    Well, I figured it out. Had to reflash the unit to fix it though.

    Here's what happened:

    Out of curiosity- I went to /var/lib/install. Surprise! I found another var, then lib, then install (so the resulting path was /var/lib/install/var/lib/install).

    Instead of fixing it the long way, I just reflashed and reinstalled my apps. Now it works....and I don't have a duplicated path.
