General :: Failure To Install Ordinary Software From Ubuntu 10.04 Center / Fix This?
Oct 1, 2010
I am trying to install several of the packages listed in the repositories for Ubuntu 10.04 LTS from the Ubuntu SoftwarecCenter. I get the error message: "The action would require the installation of packages from not authenticated sources."
How can this be...they are in the repository. Doesn't that mean they are authenticated?
By the way, under sources, I selected "Server for the United States".
What can I do to fix this?

Okay so I have now run into my first problem I cant seem to find a solution to.
I have downloaded a .deb file and discovered that you can run them through Ubuntu Software Center to avoid using the terminal. It seems to me that you can even do this if the program is not a part of the Software Center listed programs.
So this is what I did and it now says that my program has been installed.

I have read a couple of threads that deals with resize partion and then create new lvm partion.That is not what I want to do! I have resized my partion from 275 GB to 150 GB. the reason for this was hoping for more space to be able to create a normal partion with cfdisk but that does not seem to work.
I have free space, but how can I use it to create room for a new ordinary partion.when the default partion layout for fedora/centos is to fill the whole space up whether you use it or not?

I just recently installed Xubuntu 9.10 on my old acer Aspire 3000. Previously I was running Debian 5. Something it was great and all but I wanted to try out the "New Hotness" that is Xubuntu. The install went flawless and as far as Linux distro's go this is by far the most impressive. However, I have this problem with my USB storage devices not mounting. When I plug them in they show up and everything looks like its about to work when I get this: [URL]
A quick jaunt over to dmesg:
Code:
#
[ 2950.184072] usb 1-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 6
#
[ 2950.320178] usb 1-3: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

#
[ 2950.326519] usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning
#
[ 2955.324403] usb-storage: device scan complete .....
I've been all over google, in multiple irc rooms asking questions, and I cant seem to get anywhere. I can mount the devices manually with mount -t auto /dev/sdb1 /mountpoint. They mount themselves when I plug them in.

Is it possible to configure Ubuntu to allow a user to only install from the software center and not gain any other admin privileges? I have enabled dpkg, apt-get and synaptic through visudo and I can install from there but the software center still prompts for my admin user's password. Just to be clear: it is not prompting me for the user's sudo password but for the password of the account that was created during installation.
I basically want to let users install anything they like through the package managers but not do any other root stuff (like sudo rm -rf /).

So apparently I've got a broken dependency and Ubuntu can't handle it itself. This is the error message I get when it fails to repair.
Unpacking dockmanager (from .../dockmanager_0.1.0~bzr83-0ubuntu1~10.10~dockers1_i386.deb) ...

How can I go about fixing this? I can't use the software center until the error is cleared.... :[

I can get update manager and some application from the software center to work, but several of them show a "no Internet connection" pop-up followed by "check your Internet connection". If it's any help some of the application that will not install, I tried first to install from playdeb. In addition, playdeb seemed to have issues when I tried to setup installation for it. I can't even get application to install from their website either.

I've just upgraded to 11.04 and loving it but, now I can't add any apps through Ubuntu Software Center. I select an app and then click Install. After that, I get this:
An unhandable error occured There seems to be a programming error in aptdaemon. The software that allows you to install/remove software and to perform other package management related tasks.
Then this window pops up:
System program problem detected Do you want to report the problem now?
Now, when I choose to report the problem, I get another window:
the program "aptd" closed unexpectedly. I tried to use
Code:
sudo apt-get upgrade
,and errors
Code:
javi@javi-Cpu:~$ sudo apt-get upgrade

Have got slow bumpy - slow to load -slow to refresh graphics. Also noticed that when inittab 3 and doing a non graphical login for user startx wont work. Something about fbdev not loading.
logining in via kdm works for user. have tried placing an xorg.conf into /etc/X11 with what used to be ok for user to have dri.am using an radeon hd 2400 pcie graphic card. Also placed a file into /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/100-dri.conf again with what used to work to get dri working. Is it me or is slackware graphics gone down hill since 13.0?
