I just installed fresh on a new laptop, Hardy Heron. I ran an update and upgrade. At the end of the upgrade I got this error
Errors were encountered while processing:
linux-headers-2.6.24-19
Then when I went to install webcam software, it got stuck on linux-headers again somehow. I don't know what this means and why it's happening, or even what linux-headers is.
