I have found similar threads discussing this but none quite as specifi to my problem. My app manager gives the notorious operation failed banner and hence nothing shows up in unisital, download, or update. Also all my catalogs have seemed to disappear and furthermore I can no longer receive or send text messages. The programs that I have installed that may have caused this are OpenJazz, Mypaint, and DStroy and I would like to unistall them but can't. I know I can do it from xterm just not sure what the command is. Any help will be much appreciated, and preferably one that doesnt call for flashing but I may do that as a last resort. Thank You
