I have two laptops with F12 installed. Both recently received updates and now the yum command does not work on either of them. I have attached 2 files showing the output when yum command is executed on one of these laptops.
View 11 RepliesI am not sure if this is a bug or not: I have disabled updates in System/Preferences/Software Update Preferences (set to Never/Nothing/Never) and yet when there are updates I get the icon on the Gnome panel announcing bugs or security updates.The reason I have disabled updates is that I prefer to check for updates manually with Yum, also to prevent lock conflicts between manual Yum and PackageKit.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI got Ubuntu 10.10 installed. Unfortunately, my wireless doesnt work. I'm connected to my router, but web pages wont load.
I thought to myself, maybe Ubuntu needs to update. So I lugged my computer out to the router itself and okugged my computer in. I went into update manager and let it do its thing. It was PAINFULLY slow. I had a less than 100 b/s. But I let it do its thing. After all 200 Mb's were done, which took a couple hours, I rebooted my system. Now, I cant even connect to my wireless and the internet symbol (the wireless bars thing in the top right) is gone.
1) How can I get my wireless to work?
2) How do I get the wireless button back?
I ran Update Manager and installed updates. Now flash video and other things with flash content wont work.
To give one example. I go to a web I use frequently and the following message is displayed at the top: "Additional plug-ins are required to display media on this page"
I click on "install mising plug-ins" and select Flash Player-installer. Bu then it tells me it's already installed! This has only happened since last night when I installed the updates!
I can see that in yum-updatesd configuration i can use smtp_server to rely mail notifications as per below outputs from man pages smtp_server SMTP server to use when sending mail, host or a hostort string. Defaults to localhost:25. The problem that this option doesn't work at all and it rely into the local MTA not the one set on the smtp_server

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am using Fedora 13 and I have one program (wine) that I need to start grabbing for the updates-testing repo instead of the default repositories in order to get newer versions. I think I can figure out how to add that repository, but I need to know if there are any others I need to disable or any other changes I need to make to my system so that I don't confuse my set up with conflicting updates.
Also, is there anything special I need to do to be sure that only that one program is grabbed from the testing repo when I run regular updates?
For some reason Update Manager is not installing updates as of yesterday.I have it set to check daily and notify if updates are available. It has been working without issues for well over a year now.
Update Manager tells me updates are available and presents the list of security, recommended, and other updates. All are selected to update, but when I select Install Updates in Update Manager it returns with a Reading Package Information window overlaid on the main Update Manager window - building dependency tree then reading state information and dumps me back to the main Update Manager window without performing any update actions.
I just learned that warsow 0.6 is out, and went to see if it was available in the ubuntu software center yet, as opposed to going and downloading and installing it manually from the warsow website. The ubuntu repo's still have version 0.5, and at the bottom of the page it says:
"Updates: Canonical does not provide updates for Warsow. Some updates may be provided by the Ubuntu community."
So if I wanted to 'update' this item in the repo's for the better of the community what would that entail?
I just installed a series of Ubuntu 9.10 updates, and after rebooting the machine, I can no longer connect via ethernet / lan to the internet. The connection manager just shows the spinning graphic showing the adapter is attempting to connect to the internet. I don't know which update caused it, and I'm not very good with linux. I was using network manager, and I believe that package was uploaded! Help, what should I do now? My Ubunutu is completely useless without a connection to the internet.
View 5 Replies View RelatedThere are some updates in the Update Manager list which I do not install. Among them, some drivers for HP Printers (I don't know why this cropped up; I don't even use printers on my laptop), and gcj updates (I use gcc/g++ but not gcj). I unchecked them the first time I saw them on my UM list. However, for every subsequent batch of new updates, UM retains these updates and I need to uncheck them every time. How can I remove them totally from my UM list?

View 5 Replies View RelatedSo, it is my understanding that Ubuntu's automatic updates do not install ANY updates that are not "important security updates." For example, it did not upgrade me to Firefox 4 automatically; I had to do it myself (Don't all new browser versions usually contain new security features/patches? Oh well...That is a separate question entirely).
ANYWAY, is there some way to get the latest stable versions of all of my open-source software automatically (or at least all at once, on command), instead of just security updates? It seems silly to have to install new versions for every program manually.
Also, related/side question: Now that I have installed Firefox 4 myself (via apt-get by adding the mozilla-stable PPA), will I stop getting security updates for Firefox through the standard Ubuntu update manager?
Actually, a really thorough explanation of the whole automatic update system (or a link to one) would be great too.
How do i download and install updates? It says package not found.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm running CentOS 5.4 and noticed that for the past month there haven't been any new updates showing up either on 'yum check-update' or 'yum update' (I'm interested in basic and security updates). Although this may be right, I wonder if there is an online reference where I can check the updates that are released for CentOS (security bulletins) and make sure if there is anything wrong with my update system.
View 11 Replies View RelatedI think that perhaps I am not getting all of the updates, even though running "yum update" or the gui equivalent tells me that everything is up to date.
I have been having an ongoing problem with Empathy not connecting to MSN. I have tried several of the workarounds that are floating around (including making changes to RequestMultipleSecurityTokens.py), except uninstalling telepathy-butterfly. The only one that works is manually killing butterfly then restarting Empathy.
At any rate, this thread ends by saying that there is an update to butterfly that should be available through the normal update channels which is supposed to fix the problem. However, my system is updated as far as I can tell (that is, running "software update" tells me that everything is current) but looking in add/remove software shows that I have telepathy-butterfly-0.5.14-1.fc13 installed. The packages that bpepple refers to are 0.5.2.
How do I get this update? Why am I not getting it in the first place? yum update doesn't give me an error, it just says that there are no packages marked for update.
Incidentally this is plain old Fedora 13, 32 bit. I haven't done anything fancy to it unless installing Compiz counts.
I have a machine which cannot be updated. It gives me an error which is displayed in the attached.
View 5 Replies View RelatedIn F11 I did Sylpheed's fix pulseaudio and everthing was great. After upgrading to F12 my audio still worked flawlessly, but since the last pulseaudio updates my audio volume is about 50% lower than before. All the alsa mixer sliders Master, pcm, etc., are at 100%, and turning up the volume in Gnome volume or pulseaudio to 150% still doesn't bring the volume up to what it was before the updates. Also this was a problem even before the updates. I have to turn the volume up in gnome volume or pulseadio after every boot; it won't stay put.
View 10 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to get a notification that there are updates available other than by using the Software Update GUI tool in my Gnome panelon Fedora 11 x86_64?
I ask this because the Software Update GUI is hopeless:
1) It cannot remember its window size. Every time I tell it to display available updates I have to drag the window big enough to see everything. Next time I tell it to show me the available updates it is back to the same small window size.
2) It hangs on "Cleanup" about half the time, leaving me to wonder if everything was actually installed or not.
3) Because Software Update is so buggy I generally use Yumex to do the update. After installing all the updated packages Software Update still says there are packages to install. Even then it doesn't get it right. Just now it said there were 16 packages. I used Yumex to install them. Now it says there are three available. But if I tell it to display them it shows all 16. Yes, I understand that it did not reset itself after I installed the packages, but it should have. Telling me there are three and then listing 16 tells me Software Update can't even count.
I do want something to appear in my Gnome panel when there are updates. It doesn't even have to have a built-in installer. I just want it to be reliable and accurate.
I'm trying to tun updates but the updates quit when the computer loads rpm fusion code...

As we know fedora is very quick in releasing new editions. This makes the repositories of earlier editions obsolete and we don't get updates. For example I was using fedora 11 whose updates can no longer be found. In such a case what are your suggestions. Should I reinstall a higher version or there are other solutions
