I'm currently running into errors while trying to install the dd_block themes according to the README.txt installation instructions and would appreciate any suggestions. I've included the details below.

Environment:
Drupal 6.22
Theme: Garland Subtheme

Modules:
Views 6.x-2.16
Views Slideshow 6.x-2.3
Views slideshow: DDblock 6.x-2.0

Steps Followed:
1.) Enabled modules and dependencies
2.) Download and copy jquery.easing.1.1.1.js to sites/all/modules/views_slideshow_ddblock/js [*NOTE: Link to this file in original readme install documentation is no longer valid]
3.) Download vsd-upright10-60-V2-3.zip and copy "custom" directory to subtheme folder. [*NOTE: Original install doc specifies to download vsd-upright10-60-V2-2.zip]
4.) After running update.php I received the following errors:

    user warning: Unknown column 'block_type' in 'where clause' query: UPDATE views_view SET block_type='slideshow_list' WHERE block_type='views_slideshow_list' in /home/quickstart/websites/ism.dev/sites/all/modules/views_slideshow/views_slideshow.install on line 26.
    user warning: Unknown column 'block_type' in 'where clause' query: UPDATE views_view SET block_type='slideshow_teaser' WHERE block_type='views_slideshow_teaser' in /home/quickstart/websites/ism.dev/sites/all/modules/views_slideshow/views_slideshow.install on line 27.

    user warning: Unknown column 'page_type' in 'where clause' query: UPDATE views_view SET page_type='slideshow_teaser' WHERE page_type='views_slideshow_teaser' in /home/quickstart/websites/ism.dev/sites/all/modules/views_slideshow/views_slideshow.install on line 30.
    user warning: Unknown column 'page_type' in 'where clause' query: UPDATE views_view SET page_type='slideshow_node' WHERE page_type='views_slideshow_node' in /home/quickstart/websites/ism.dev/sites/all/modules/views_slideshow/views_slideshow.install on line 31.

And the final status message:

The following queries were executed

UPDATE:
I was able to get the themes to show under themes dropdown.

But it would be nice to have a explanation for the error messages anyway.

Project: Views Slideshow: Dynamic Display Block » Views Slideshow
Version: 6.x-2.0 » 6.x-2.3
Priority: Major » Normal
Status: Needs work » Active

The errors are in update statements for views_slideshow.
Changing the project to views_slideshiow

having the same error. what module creates the columns 'block_type' and 'page_type' so I can modify the table and make this work

You should be able to safely ignore those errors. I think these updates were from older settings. I didn't write those so I am not sure why they are there.
