I will explain what I did.
1.Install debian amd64 stable (expert install mode with static ip address) without a desktop
2. Updated to testing
3. Installed nvidia drivers
3. Installed kde-desktop
Before I installed KDE I had networking - was able to update and install programs from terminal. Then I install KDE and then I cannot access internet or contact mirrors via cli for updating or installing.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently upgraded from wheezy to jessie and everything went as planned with dist-upgrade. However I just noticed that I can't play any video file. I thought about upgrading vlc, as it was already installed but it had dependency problems. So I tried to remove it
Code: Select allsudo apt-get remove --purge vlc
Then If I try to install vlc I receive this message:
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
vlc : Depends: vlc-nox (= 2.2.0~rc2-2) but 2.0.3-5+deb7u2+b1 is to be installed
Depends: libvlccore8 (>= 2.2.0~pre1) but it is not going to be installed

Breaks: vlc-nox (< 2.2.0~pre2-2~) but 2.0.3-5+deb7u2+b1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Now, I thought about removing vlc-data but I received this message saying that 253 packages will be removed (624Mb worth of applications). Am I uninstalling my entire system with this?

apt-get install kde
But I get dependencies errors, translated from swedish so it is not exact:
kde:

If I check kde-core the version is: 5:48. If I try to install kde-core first I get another bunch of dependencies errors... so I seem to go in circles.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIv installed debian 6.0.1 and tried to install the kde desktop. it installed ok but when i boot up now i just get a terminal. Iv tried starting x but apparently its already running which kinda makes sence since the terminal IS a bit gui (you can use the mouse to select some menu buttons at the top) Iv made sure xorg and kdm and all that jass in installed and up to date but nothing seems to work.
I saw in an ubuntu forum that someone with the same problem solved it by renaming their home folder then making a new one with "the correct permissions" however i have no idea hgow to do that from the terminal and alot fot eh commands they talked about dont seem to work which i was surprised by since i thought it was all bash? (ie startx, service, sudo are all invalid commands for me apparently)

I'm trying to install KDEConnect on my 64 bit Debian system. It's failing because of dependencies.
Tried installing the first dependency, sshfs. It said it cannot find the 64 bit package. So, I tried the 32 bit. That one depends on fuse. Tried to install fuse 32 bit. hat depends on sed. Tried installing 32 bit sed, but the package manager said it's risky to replace 64 bit sed with the 32 bit variant.
I stopped here thinking that I'm risking some stability and the road to the finish line is not visible till the end, meaning I might lose hours trying to do something that fails at the last step. This happened to me few times in the past (with other software) and I really don't want to repeat the incident. I need a stable system and I need my time.
The question is: how to get installed kdeconnect package on Jessie 64 bit ...

Things have changed a lot since I started hacking Fortran in 1971...
I have installed debian 8.1.0 on my desktop (Asus m5a97 mobo, AMD 8230E cpu, e-Geforce 7200 GS graphics card). When I do a normal boot, the system will hang before it gets into gnome.
While in advanced mode, I noticed the following in /var/log/messages:
gnome-session[1371]: WARNING: Could not parse desktop file caribou-autostart.desktop or it references a not
found TryExec binary
A search of the web found the same error : [URL] ....
The bug report suggested that I place the version of caribou-autostart.desktop found in:
/usr/share/gdm/greeter/autostart/caribou-autostart.desktop
with the version found in:
/etc/xdg/autostart/caribou-autostart.desktop
I replaced the file. The problem is still there.
I have installed the 8.2.0 version of debian to see if the bug was fixed in the current release. The problem is the same.
So, in all distributions that I test, I did not get working the Plymouth, if I try to fix, the system broke. Only me rest open the System with recovery mode and execute "chroot" and remove the changes.
I was following that tutorial >> [URL] ....
And everything goes normally, with no errors, but when I reboot the system, GDM not start, leaving me with a black screen with the processes that system start. So how i cant fix that?
My hardware is >> Core 2 Duo 8400, GT 740 GDDR5 and 2 Hd of 500GB.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI installed Debian Lenny on a friend's computer which is an older Dell workstation. The install went well. I delivered the machine last week, got it set up in there house and all was fine. 2 days later they said it crashed with a black screen and lots of words they didn't understand. I get there today and rebooted. X would not start but it ran a whole bunch of automatic self tests but could not recover. I was able to log in as root and run fsck. That made the necessary repairs. I was able to reboot and log into the KDE Desktop. Hopefully they don't break it again.
I asked them what they did to it to cause it to freak out like that and they had no idea. So, as to my question, what causes something like that? I know there must be a log file somewhere on the computer that will give me some insight into the matter, but I'm not sure where to find the file.
