    Hey guys i have the following problem:

    Everything worked out fine for my AAO, i have plenty of software installed and
    everything is great. but just the other day i wanted to download gtkpod to connect a
    friends's ipod to the netbook. unfortunately, the add/remove software programm does not
    start anymore. when i try to open it via the rightclickmenu or when i doubleclick on
    a rpm file pirut askes me to type in my administrator password. but when i do that
    the new window is just blank plain grey. on top it says [installing packages] but there
    is nothing in the actual window. when i try to close it, it won't close.

    i hope theres any solution.
    thanks.
