Yes, that is exactly what has happened. I have been looking through the
processes with ps -ef and I found out that one called whiptail (what a
name) was all about the Sun agreement. So I killed that one and all
which referred to Adept. Now Adept will run but in read only mode.

I get the message 'Database locked - Adept Manager. Please close the
other application before using this one.'

Well I can't find any relevant process now and I don't know how to sort
out the package database. Can anyone help please?
