Debian :: Cannot Update System After Unsuccessful Install Of OpenOffice

Mar 20, 2010

I installed openoffice 3.2 but had insufficient diskspace at /opt. Thereafter I receive this message if I start the package/update manager.
"A unresolvable problem occurred while initializing the package information. Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the following error message:
'E:The package ooobasis3.2-math needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.'"
Uninstall and reinstall (at a different location (/usr/opt) is not possible although there is enough space.

Debian Hardware :: Unsuccessful Install For Nvidia In Jessie (Optimus)

Apr 17, 2015

I have Debian Jessie and I've been trying to install the Nvidia privative drivers. I've tried several ways to do it and all of them end in the same way. The last one I tried was installing bumblebee-nvidia and bumblebee with apt-get. The output was [URL] ....

With these two messages:

[URL] ....
[URL] ....

Then I restarted and runned nvidia-xconfig

Code: Select allWARNING: Unable to locate/open X configuration file.

Package xorg-server was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `xorg-server.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'xorg-server' found
New X configuration file written to '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'

Finally when I restarted I cannot enter to Gnome... When I run xstart from the terminal I get an error saying: "No screens found", the final part of the log is this one [URL] ....

Feb 14, 2011

I have customized lucid so it is easier on my computer specs. My old laptop only has 256mb of ram. So I have removed openoffice and replaced it with abiword/gnumeric and installed the lxde desktop. I have had this configuration for a month and half now and update manager has never had a problem with it.Now all of the sudden it does and is trying to reinstall openoffice all the time.

OpenSUSE Install :: Update: No Home, Wrong Keyboard Layout, OpenOffice?

Dec 3, 2009

I updated from 11.1 to 11.2. Before some intelligent person says, I should never update but do a new install: a new install isn't better, then I have other problems to tackle. And I really would like updates to work.Well, I have the following problems and I hope you don't mind me listing them all in one post *it's difficult for me to type on this keyboard layout):1. home isn't found or set up. I have modified fstab to mount /dev/sda6, which is home, but it won't mount it at startup, and also not when it's just using the disk/by-id line that had been put in.

2. the keyboard layout is american, while the system language is set to German (I'm German and would like also my keyboard to know that). I had no chance to change that, even a loadkeys de-latin1 doesn't help3. OpenOffice drives me crazy. It just doesn't start properly, or at all. It doesn't open a number of documents, but it doesn't also give any error message. Sometimes soffice.bin is in the list of processes, but OOo is nowhere seen. After killing the process (or terminating it), I can start it, but have only the opening screen and cannot really open a document.4. printing doesn't seem to work, either.Needless to say that everything worked fine before the update

Debian :: Install Flash / Chromium / Openoffice On Squeeze?

May 1, 2010

I've tried to search for how to install the dev builds of Chromium on Debian Squeeze, but the only information I find is on the google-chrome-unstable package. I tried to install the deb file with "dpkg -i google-chrome-unstable_i386.deb" but it told me there was an error and aborted. Is there any way to install the latest nightly builds of Chromium on Squeeze? On Ubuntu it was as easy as adding the lines:

Debian :: 5 - Install The "Synaptic Package Manager" And A Mirror Repository So That My System Can Update

Aug 23, 2010

I downloaded the first CD Image as instructed at [url] and installed it on my laptop. I would like to install the "Synaptic Package Manager" and a mirror repository so that my system can update.

I have apparently installed " apt-cdrom add" and then typed "apt-get update" and I tried to install the mirror when the system was installed but as the wireless was not connected it apparently did not add the correct details.

Software :: Unsuccessful In Getting VLC To Play .avi Files

May 8, 2010

I have found extensive answers to installing VLC player online. I'm having a few problems and thought I'd ask here as I am in no way an expert in regards to Linux or Linpus (the OS currently installed on my son's Aspire 1 netbook).I have been unsuccessful in getting VLC to play .avi files. I created the .avi files on my iMac and am now using my son's netbook while I'm away.I thought I'd be able to view them using VLC, but I only get audio playback and a black screen.

I have enabled Xfce menu, updated everything, upgraded to Firefox 3, and tried various ways of installing codecs i.e DivX (had no idea how to install!).I found lots and lots of forum posts regarding VLC. I encountered problems when attempting to download and install livna-release-7.rpm, from the VLC website, via the terminal. Basically every URL or mirror I followed was a dead end which leaves me unable to fix the black screenWhen I try to download rpmfusion I get an error stating that Fedora 11 is needed for it to work.Can anyone offer a working link to 'livna-release-7.rpm', or alternatively, a way to play avi files on Linpus. Is there any chance you could point me in the right direction.

OpenSUSE Install :: Update System - Without Having To Download / Install Every Dependency Manually?

Dec 13, 2009

how to update my system online (for example my firefox 3.0 to 3.5) but i can't figure out how this possibly works. I tried the "online update" using Yast2 but apparently (according to Yast) there is nothing at all to be patched on my system. I tried to click on the Firefox-3.5.5 rpm in the repository web-interface and open it using "install software" but the process aborts because of unresolved dependencies. Is there an easy way to update software without having to download/install every dependency manually?

Hardware :: Recovering Ext3 Partition After Unsuccessful Resizing?

I've tried to resize my home partition using parted. Prior to it I had removed ext3 flags following some advices found on net. Resizing failed and I ended up with filesystem bigger than partition. Then I managed to enlarge the partition using fdisk but it didn't help. When I run fsck on it it prints:

Debian :: Bug Prevents System Update On Squeeze

Jul 8, 2011

I cannot update my system either with Update Manager nor with Synaptic. The system tries to download the updates, and then generates an error message that I have broken packages. So, I click on Fix Broken Packages, etc., and when running get the following error message:

E: /var/cache/apt/archives/libavcodec52_5%3a0.6.3-0.0_i386.deb: short read on buffer copy for backend dpkg-deb during `./usr/lib/i686/cmov/libavcodec.so.52.72.2'

This appears to me to be a system bug. I'm running the 32-bit version of Squeeze. Re-install, or ?

Debian :: Asynchronous Update System Between Two Computers

Jul 24, 2011

In a few months I am gonna be starting a website that handles credit card information.

A requirement of my servers is that they be fully self-maintaining.

By this is mean that they will download their own updates, restart them-self, and switch them-self back on after general house power failure (black out).

Is there a way in Linux to make the computer automatically reboot itself after download and installing an update (if it needs to). My Linux uses the apt package system, with Synaptic Package Manager/Update Manager.

Now here is another problem I found. When a customer has logged into my site, my computer won't register them as logged in when they've rebooted? Like, its going to issue them new cookies? Credit card transaction process will be have to be restarted?

What if I build two identical server running in sync with each other... sort of like RAID mirror.. and they both download and install updates, once their both ready to reboot. Computer 1 will reboot. On successful reboot, System 1 alerts System 2 that it successfully reboot and that System 2 may now reboot. This way the customers experience is not interrupted.

Debian Configuration :: Crashed After System Update

Jan 23, 2011

I updated squeeze last night for the first time. It worked fine after 1st reboot last night. There was one reboot stalled at "hald" so I shut down and restarted. Worked ok 2nd time around

Today,upon login I got a string of taskbar notification (which I couldnt read as they all overlapped . I was able to see a kernel error message but couldnt report it (network was down) or save it (USB stick not recognised) Some programs worked, others didnt

I have the partedmagic rescue distro on USB stick so have those programs to use in order to fix the problem. Any idea how I can repair this? I tried fdisk for the hell of it. reported clean partition as predicted. I am using debian-testing-amd64-kde.

Ubuntu Installation :: Update OpenOffice.org In Kubuntu 9.10

Feb 21, 2010

You may tell from my question that I haven't got much Linux experience, but I'm currently having a problem where OpenOffice.org won't save anything, and I'm trying to update it. I've downloaded the latest 64 bit debian installer, and when I unpack it, there's a shell script file called "update" which is set to executable. If I click on that file nothing happens (WINE seems to have associated itself with shell scripts, and nothing happens when I try and open them through Dolphin) and if I paste its name into the terminal it says dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege.If I type su and then type my password it says "su: Authentication failure". I only entered one password during the kubuntu installation process and that was the password for my user login, so that is the password I'm trying to use with su.

Ubuntu :: Unsuccessful Dual Boot Installation - Grub Error

Mar 25, 2009

This will make the third time I have tried to load Ubuntu and it has wiped out my Win OS twice and am not sure it hasn't done it again. I installed a 40gb hdd as a slave, have XP on the master. In the process of installing I picked the drive that corresponded to the slave. Didn't understand the the names or titles Ubuntu used but proceeded and the installation went fine although I never saw a place to load Grub on the master drive. After rebooting a couple of times saw the option to click Esc for boot menu but the only choices given were Ubuntu, ubuntu recovery and ubuntu kernel. Can find no mention of my W OS. Have tried to unplug the slave drive but can't boot then as get error message of Grub error.

Debian :: Grub Settings Revert After System Update

May 18, 2010

I used the Debian Lenny (main, not testing) update manager yesterday to install some new updates. Took a few minutes and no problems but today I started up and for some reason my system wouldn`t load.The hard drive installer automatically sets hd1,0 as my Debian system when it`s 0,0. I had changed this but upon updating yesterday the system again has grub using the previous setting.

Is there any logical reason why a system update (not upgrade, just small update via update manager using only main files not testing or volatile nor backports) could or would change my grub settings back to the wrong ones? I haven`t installed anything else, the only change has been the standard system update so it can only be that which caused it, but why?

OpenSUSE Install :: System Freezes After Update To 11.2?

Nov 24, 2009

I upgraded my Dell 2.53G machine from 10.3 to 11.2 (KDE desktop). Everything seemed fine for the first day. Then the whole desktop froze. No screen update, no keyboard, and, though you could see the mouse move, clicking didn't do anything. The only way out was to pull the plug.

After multiple attempts at fixing it failed, I repartitioned the disk and tried a "clean install". Everything worked for about 2 hours. The system is currently frozen. The harddrive is quiet. The only "3rd party app" was Adobe Flash, pulled from the Non-OSS repository.

Fedora :: First Yum Update On Clean Install Crashes System

Apr 15, 2010

I was using Fedora 9 until about 1 month ago when my hard drive crashed. I installed F12 on a new hard drive last week. Due to some other software issues (empathy), I decided I should try to get the latest updates. PackageKit kept giving errors and would not update. So, I researched and found that I needed to run " su -c 'yum update' " for the first update then PackageKit would work. I did this and after about an hour of updating, the screen went black. Nothing you can do at that point but hard reboot.

When I did that, I could only get a "GRUB" command line. I played with it for a minute but really I have no idea what to do with GRUB cmd (beyond my experience level). So I decided to wipe it out and reinstall F12. I did that, and was just working thru the updates again. Same thing happened, went to black screen. I have not rebooted it yet, but Im sure when I do, it will be GRUB again. What in the world am I supposed to do with this? I am not a Linux star, but I have been using it for around 8 years now with various distros, so I would say I have at least moderate experience.

Debian Multimedia :: MPlayer No Longer Listed In Apps Menu After System Update

Aug 3, 2010

MPlayer was working just fine last night, but today I'm having problems which may be due to me performing a system update. I noticed that MPlayer was no longer listed in my Applications menu and I no longer had the option of opening videos with it. However, I now had Gnome MPlayer which must have been installed with the update because I never installed it. Whilst going through Synaptic, I found that the MPlayer GUI had been removed, so I re-installed it. However nothing happened when I attempted to open videos with it.

When I tried to use it through the terminal I got the error message:
mplayer: relocation error: mplayer: symbol codec_wav_tags, version LIBAVFORMAT_52 not defined in file libavformat.so.52 with link time reference

I found a bug report on this very problem here [URL]. The conclusion was that the person filing the bug report was using a version of ffmpeg not found in Debian and that he'd need a version of MPlayer built with his version of ffmpeg libs. I'm assuming that this is also the case with me, however I'm not sure how to go about finding a build or simply building a version of MPlayer with whatever version of ffmpeg that I'm using. For reference, I'm using Squeeze.
