Apr 17, 2010I'm sitting at work and wondering if Synaptic package manager could be used with slapt-get on Slackware since it's based on apt-get anyway. I haven't researched this, but I wonder if anyone out there has. I'm thinking that Synaptic looks for .deb packages but it would be interesting if one could make it work. The Gslapt/slapt-get combo works just fine for me as far as a GUI alternative, but apparently only works with .tgz or .txz. Or does it?
It would be interesting if one could install .deb packages because it would open up a whole lot repositories to Slackware including the Ubuntu repos. Don't get me wrong, I like compiling from source but nothing drives me crazier than finding some piece of software I like that ends up needing a million Gnome dependencies. I can definitely appreciate the reasons why Gnome was dropped from Slackware!
Slackware :: Unsafe To Upgrade The Kernel With Slapt-get?
Jan 29, 2010I noticed that slapt-get excludes a lot of package titles based on aaa, glibc, and kernel. I've been wondering why, and haven't been able to find any definitive answers... Anyone here have any ideas on why that is? My Slackware installation is currently kernel 2.6.29.6 (I think) and the newest available on the official repositories is 2.6.32.5 (or something like that).
When I put in slapt-get --upgrade it spits out about 15 packages that are excluded that it won't upgrade. Now, I know I can remove the exclusions by editing the slapt-get configuration file, but I don't want to if it's going to screw something up. So my question is: Is there a reason those are excluded? Is it unsafe to upgrade the kernel with slapt-get?
Slackware :: Slapt-get Slow When Downloading / High It?
Nov 30, 2010I am a newbie regarding the Slackware, though i have some millage on Ubuntu. Anyway, i have Slackware 13.1 and slapt-get is really, really slow when downloading packages, even when i do slapt-get -update the slowness is just killing me
The second question is somewhat different. How can i view dependencies on which a particular application is depended?

May 22, 2011I get an error when running slapt-get. The error is: "slapt-get: error while loading shared libraries: libsas.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory".
I've booted the Slackware disk # 1 and unchecked everything except the libraries category and installed them. I rebooted and it still says this. I get this same error before I put the disk in and rebooted to install ALL libraries. I really need help. BTW, I can't load KDE.I found a pkg manager already installed called "slackpkg". But I really need help on this library issue!! I uninstalled it (slapt-get) anyway, so forget that!

General :: Getting All RPMs By 'yum Install Pkg1 Pkg2 Pkg3' To Install On Offline System ?
Jun 12, 2011I need to somehow do a yum installation (or equivalent of) on a system that is offline with no access to the internet. (I do have access to another Linux system that has internet access, but the Linux installations on both systems have different packages installed and enabled.)
Let's say the command to enter is 'yum install pkg1 pkg2 pkg3' (the documentation for some applications I need indicate the installation instructions this way, and not as the actual RPMs I need). Is there a way for me to run that on my offline system?
e.g. one way I can think of is to run that command on the online system, somehow if possible take note of what RPMs get installed, then transfer them to the offline system via USB and install all the RPMs via rpm command.
The problem with my above idea is that the two systems have different packages enabled, so even if yum on the online system shows a few dependencies being downloaded, I could run download and install all these RPMs and their dependencies on the offline system only to find several more missing dependencies, and dependencies of those dependencies.
General :: Options To Pickup Where Install Left Off And Start Adding Packages - Scrap And Re Install
Apr 18, 2011I've got an ASUS eee1005 that I'm trying to load eeebuntu -- I've read good things about it! However, I managed to get it (partially) installed using only unetbootin and the eeebuntu-nbr iso. Luckily I've got other working laptops in the house, or I'd be stuck because now I've got a partially installed distro that isn't allowing me usage of my wireless. Basically, what I'd like to do is be able to go back to the install process and load all the packages I want, which, hopefully, will give me NetworkManager so that I can finally connect. I can boot to the thumbdrive (8gig, btw) but I don't think I've got the right files on it to do the install. Here's what appears on the thumbdrive:
[code]...
I would think that with these files on the thumbdrive, it could find its way into the install process. Apparently not. I've read most, if not all of the 'install from USB' threads and how-to's, and it's still not working right - Now, having a partially installed distro (with GUI that's not GNOME, or KDE. . ?) Are there any options I can use to pickup where the install left off and start adding packages? Or should I just scrap it and re-install?
General :: Lightweight Ubuntu Install Using Alternate Install CD?
Jan 19, 2011I am trying to do a 'light' install of Ubuntu 10.04 using the alternate install CD. Here is how i am planning to do it:
1. Perform a console only installation(Standard system only on d-i tasksel)
2. Install gnome-core
3. Then install the packages i need using apt.
1. Would such an installation lead have any significant performance(RAM usage) advantage over a full fledged installation?
2. Is there a way i could install gnome-core from the installation CD instead of downloading them from the repository?
3. Would installing just gnome-core mean that synaptic & update-manager wouldn't be available? i am hoping that it wouldn't be the case I checked their dependencies from packages.ubuntu.com, it doesn't look like they need gnome-desktop-environment to be installed first.
4. Would such an install have any more device driver related issues (eg.display drivers) than a regular install?

General :: Can't Install Fedora13 After Win7 Install?
Jul 5, 2010I just installed win 7 and now can't install fedira 13 on the partition that i made for it on the same drive. The problem is that after installation of win 7 i lost the ability to boot form cd. In bios i still have cd set up to boot first and drive second, but win 7 did something that overrides bios set up. I even tried Esc for boot menu, then i select to boot form cd, but it still boots in windows. What can I do to fix this?

General :: How To Install Gcc-4.4 In Other Than /usr/
Jun 28, 2011i have gcc-4.4 installed in my UBUNTU10.10
Code:
testuser@testuser-desktop:/usr/include$ ls /usr/bin/gcc*
/usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.1 /usr/bin/gcc-4.4 /usr/bin/gccbug-4.1
testuser@testuser-desktop:/usr/include$ gcc -v
[code]...
i have a folder which is similar to that. but it is missing few headers which i need like dlfcn.h,dirent.h.... and all that. so, my programs instead of compililng from my gcc/include they are getting compiled from /usr/include, which i dont want. so, i want to update it. checked the net to get such portable gcc. but i couldn'fd find. ifound one link [URL] i downloaded files from the this link, because this structure is very similar structure like my "_lin"(portable gcc). but it is noe allowing to download certain files in /lib like libstdc++.so... and few other files. i thought those are compiler specific shared objects.so, i was left with no answer to my question. where to find portable gcc-4.4 ?

Mar 27, 2011I just want to know how to install anything. I am new to linux but have followed it for a long time. I tried linux at one point in time 8 or 9 years ago but it was too difficult if there was no one around to hold my hand.I've heard that pclinuxos et al have become very user friendly, but it seems user friendly to people who already speak the language. I don't but want to continue using if I can get some functionality out of the programs.
I am looking at libre office and wine (I need ms office for a contract that I have and I do have that on my laptop, but if I can use my pc and laptop that would be great.)If someone could give the 'for dummies' version of how you install programs that have been downloaded,- in kindergarten speak, too.I have pclinuxos kde. I try to access the files in ARK but it doesn't recognize them so that must not be the first step.
