They both downloaded fine and in the synaptic list it says they are both installed, but where the HELL are they????? I have searched for them for ages, looked in the etc/apt folder, used the search function and searched for *.doc and rutebook and cookbook, but I cant find them anywhere??? Im sorry, but im a complete linux beginner, and was hoping to use these files to learn some stuff, but I cant even find them to do that!!! Is there anybody that can tell me where stuff downloaded/installed with synaptic ends up ? I cant seem to find these files anywhere>
Thanks to anybody that can help me.
All the best
Fortran

Since it's HTML you can of course view it with a browser.
I'm also new to Knoppix, but have the same problem with Synaptic. It will download the package I want to update, and further claim that its has installed the package - but in reality it has not installed (even if I run it from a root console). I've had to revert to "apt-get install Packagename" from a root console to actually do the installation.
I also note that Synaptic cannot access my Repository file on my hard drive either. My repository file is there (I've viewed it using Midnight Commander), but Synaptic can't access it. I wonder if there is an issue with permissions?
Being into Linux for about 10 days now, I pose more questions than I do answers, sorry :>) But at least I can confirm your experience.
phillfri -- are you running Synaptic as root?
