Would it be ok to remove the earlier versions of dupes above, without adverse effects?
I assume that uninstalling / disabling the new package canonical-census will have no adverse effects? It is not something that I would choose to install if it was on offer, so I don't intend accepting it by stealth.

I'm having trouble installing the latest openSuSE 11.2 32bit using NFS. The issue appears during the text-interface, before switching to the GUI. The first strange thing I noticed after mounting the ISO is the change in User/Group-IDs. Earlier versions don't do this:
Code:
# mount ./openSUSE-11.2-DVD-i586.iso /images/suse11.2 -o loop
# ls -lah /images
dr-xr-xr-x 7 root root 6.0K Dec 1 2006 suse10.2/
dr-xr-xr-x 8 root root 6.0K Jun 10 2008 suse11/
drwxr-xr-x 8 98 98 6.0K Nov 6 16:21 suse11.2/
drwxr-xr-x 8 98 98 6.0K Nov 6 14:14 suse11.2_x64/
When starting the installation process on the client system I get a "No repository found" message. Checking the error console (Alt+F4) shows:
Code:
SQUASHFS error: Minor/Major mismatch, trying to mount a newer 4.0 filesystem
SQUASHFS error: Please update your kernel
Older Versions (11.0, 11.1) are working OK. This error is suspicious since it remains after deactivating the NFSv4 in /etc/sysconfig/nfs and commenting out the NFSv4 export lines in /etc/exports.
Here's my /etc/exports:
Code:
/images/suse11 *(ro,root_squash,async,subtree_check)
/images/suse11_x64 *(ro,root_squash,async,subtree_check)

CD/DVD burning on 10.04 used to work wonderfully, but now its broken and can not create multiple copies. I don't burn a lot of disks these days but when I do its almost certain I need multiple copies.How can I revert to the version that came with my original 10.04 (64-bit) install or one perhaps a prior version to the current I have been "updated" to 2.30.2-0ubuntu1? From what I can find with Google 10.04 shipped with 2.30.0-0ubuntu1 So either it or 2.30.1 is what I need to find. How do I force a "downgrade" to what used to work for me?

But there was an update that Ubuntu did on the system, and now when my pc boots, I have 2 series ( 2 times Ubuntu, 2 times Ubunti safemode, 2 times memory test, 2 times memory test safemode) of choices for Ubuntu and one for windows 7.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSo I've been trying to install 11.04 on my laptop for a couple days. I tried the USB install a countless amount of times, and I tried upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10 to 11.04, but it never worked. I finally installing it from Windows by the wubi installer, and now it works perfectly.
What I want to do now is remove 10.04, as well as GRUB. GRUB first comes up, and I select my Windows partition. Then I choose Ubuntu to load, and then another GRUB comes up. how do I remove 10.04, as well as make loading Ubuntu more simple?
PHP in FC 12 has a lot of issues. Is there any way to rollback to an earlier version still using Yum?I'm running drupal on an FC11 machine and the site works great. When I move it to a FC12 machine, I get all sorts of errors which I've traced to problems with PHP 5.3.2. Looking at the PHP site regarding the kinds of issues I'm running into is a scary experience. The developers know its broken,
I've had so much trouble with PHP and broken releases, I suggest Fedora keep at least 4-5 releases in yum so that users can easily switch versions. Certainly 5.3.2 should not be released.I've been looking for my FC11 disk and as soon as I find it, my FC12 machine is going backwards just so I can run a version of PHP that actually works. This should not be necessary, but.....
I did "uname -a" and it's showing that I'm using 2.6.31-16-generic of the Linux Kernel. Now, in the GRUB2 boot menu, it's showing
2.6.31-14-generic & recovery
2.6.31-15-generic & recovery
and the current one: 2.6.31-16-generic & recovery.
I would like to remove the old ones because of the pileup they're creating.
Other info: I have wXP pro as my dualboot OS.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm not to clear on the difference between LTS versions and other versions, but think I may want to go with LTS. Can someone tell me if my thinking is correct given the following situation: I have some very cool, but very expensive software installed with a group license from my school, a school which I am not going to be attending for too much longer. So I want to go as long as possible without reinstalling Ubuntu, because once the product is licensed it will be licensed until I reinstall Ubuntu (or I uninstall the program). So I think this is going to require me keep the Ubuntu version I install as long as possible.
So in this case, should I go with 10.04LTS or should I just install Natty Narwhal and keep that as long as possible? It looks like 10.04LTS will be "supported" longer, but I'm not exactly clear on all that "supported" entails. Presumable it means security and software updates will be available for 10.04LTS for much longer than 11.x versions? So I'm thinking I should go with 10.04LTS
Is my thinking correct in going with 10.04LTS? Edit: It was pointed out that this would be against my contractual agreements. Which I suppose is probably true.
Since the last kernel update to 11.2 64bit portions of my video does not work right in windows XP running in either Vmplayer or Vbox. The effect is felt with my Webcam - picture is either garbled or blank not responsive at all. all other video functions in my VM's and Suse seem OK! can I revert or set my kernel back to its prior state? If so how? Also I have both "default" and "desktop" kernels - the problem is the same in each. If I can move the kernel back to its state prior to most recent update can I do it to just one of the kernels to see if it solves the problem?

How do I know the exact kernel version (or rpm package name) of fedora 14 without having to install one? I couldn't find the information on the the website. And one more question.

I can find all the available kernels for a RedHat Enterprise distribution on [URL], but not for Fedora.

I have been at this for awhile and i need to know which direction to go to enguage this problem.I am trying to get jnlp files to open automatically in chrome / firefox. Before you flame me, i have followed the instructions on the above "handy yellow link" to get java installed and set up.My goal is to click on "draw" at this link and have it open and run automatically in Chrome. [URL].. Nothing seems to happen when i click the link. From what i understand, i need jre 1.6. I sucesfully installed it from:[URL]..
I ran the alternative commands in the "handy yellow link" and selected 1.6. When i run "yum install java" i get the output: Package java-1.5.0-gcj-1.5.0.0-32.fc13.i686 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do Probably just an alternative command that i'm unaware of, but i cant find a simple fix.
For my work it is extremely useful to have multiple versions of gcc available.
