apt-get errors...would someone please help me decipher?
I'm just noob enough to not know what to do about this but experienced enough to ask for help before I completely hose my install. knoppix 3.6 hd install. I did "apt-get install nicotine", and this is the output from my attempts to correct the problem. Would someone give it a look and see what I need to do to straighten this out? I apologize for the long output.
thanx

testdisk: Depends: libntfs5 (>= 1.9.2) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
