You mean, a package activation on the Newton? If it's on the Newton, then
your desktop has nothing to do with it. There is probably already a package
that has been activated earlier that causes those problems on your Newton.
If you need to know for sure, freeze all your packages, then thaw them one
by one and reboot (soft) the Newton each time. Or, you might want to start
with the last package that was properly activated. Then, if you still have
the error, freeze again the last package to be activated correctly. And so
on. Would you happen to have WorksBetter by any chance? I know this one to
be causing a lot of those package activation problems and I had to modify
its name to force it to load the last.

Your typical electric utility draws its line current out of the big generators with a pair of coil taps located near the top of the dynamo. When the normal tap brushes get dirty, they take them off line to clean them up, and use special auxiliary taps on the bottom of the coil. Now, this is a problem, because when they do that they get not ordinary or `thin' electrons, but the fat'n'sloppy electrons that are heavier and so settle to the bottom of the generator. These flow down ordinary wires just fine, but when they have to turn a sharp corner (as in an integrated-circuit via), they're apt to get stuck. This is what causes computer glitches. -- This is the NewtonTalk list - http://www.newtontalk.net/ for all inquiries List FAQ/Etiquette/Terms: http://www.newtontalk.net/faq.html Official Newton FAQ: http://www.chuma.org/newton/faq/
