Hey that was cool, wuz the diff btw that and apt-get??

Finally installed php5-mysql, after it fixed the problem by down grading my
php5 (wow).

But I stil get the error :

*Fatal error*: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in *
/var/www/php/testconnect.php* on line *2 .

when attempting to connect to mysql via php, although I retarted the apache
server after all the aptitude adjustments.

phpinfo() doesn't still make any refrences to mysql
