I am running Fedora 12 and I just installed several updates. Afterwards I attempted to use yum to search for a package and the command did not work. The following error message was displayed
[root@d630 ~]# yum search livecd
Fatal Python error: pycurl: libcurl link-time version is older than compile-time version
Aborted (core dumped)
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.
How do i download and install updates? It says package not found.

Pressing the power button may be my only option? And if I do shut it down do I just run updates again to pick up where I've left off. I'm a bit concerned I'll end up with corrupted files

I have my server configured to update automatically every night. However, updates are failing with the following message: There was a problem updating the system. The following error message was reported:
['Not installing key'] If the problem persists, manual intervention may be required. how to troubleshoot or resolve this issue?
I updated my kernel and rebooted my system. After a few minutes, my computer said that no hard drive operations were going on and the command line hadn't said anything else so I decided to reboot (i'm VERY impatient) and now when fedora boots,t hangs at a black command line like screen. I left it an hour to see if it would do anything - but nothing! Then i put in a few commands and it didn't respond to any of them

I know I can install updates using apt-get install updates but is there a way to check to see if updates are available without installing them?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm new to ubuntu I last used it 2 years ago and did not like it one bit but a friend told me about 11.04 so thought id give it a go and I absolutely love it. its far superior to windows 7 imo. now my only problem so far is when installing updates it seems to hang on applying . but im sure there should be some indication of progress.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a dual boot system (Compaq Presario CQ61) with Windows 7 and Ubuntu installed. A while back I updated my Ubuntu system to the 11.04. All went smoothly. Then recently, when the system prompted me, I installed some updates. Since then when I try to boot into Ubuntu I end up at a CLI with (initramfs) as the prompt.I can still successfully boot off of the Windows 7 partition.After reading a lot of articles describing similar problems, and failing to find a fix, I reinstalled 11.04.The system came up without any problems. BUT then, as usual, the system prompted me to install updates. Once I was done installing them and rebooted the computer I was back at the (initramfs) prompt.

After recently installing Linux Mint 10 I have tried to install the updates it says and everytime it tells me I have to fix broken packages first. I have been into something that tells me there is no broken packages. What can I do?
View 4 Replies View RelatedOn Windows, 99% of the time you have to restart the server after installing updates. In my brief experience with Linux, its never told me I had to. Do you ever have to restart after installing any for Linux? I'm using redhat specifically if that matters.
View 4 Replies View RelatedThis is my first tryst with linux, so this might seem to be a very trivial problem: While installing updates for ubuntu 9.04, there was an unexpected crash saying that 'E:dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run sudo dpkg--configure-a' to correct the problem. When I tried to follow the instruction, it said that sudo could not be found. Is this a directory problem? If yes, how do I rectify it?

After applying the latest round of updates last night, I turned on my laptop this AM (ATI X1300 Mobility graphics running the default drivers), selected the latest kernel in GRUB, and waited to log in....only problem is that instead of seeing a normal loading screen (Blue with Fedora icon filling in), I instead get a black screen mostly covered in multicolored rectangles. I don't believe there was a graphics driver update, so I'm rather confused as to what went wrong/how to procede. I can still boot using a previous kernel.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSo, it's 2010 and I already though I got rid of coding my own drivers & compiling my own kernel in normal use... After installing latest Fedora 14 updates, my system won't boot anymore into fedora. Just continuous loop no matter if I select previous kernel system won't boot.
Anyone any ideas? I think it might be ATI driver but not 100% sure since I didn't see any D/A related or Kernel updates wasn't upcoming...
Anyways I will figure out this sooner or later but this kind of updates sucks a bit that your system goes suddenly totally unuseable or system won't reboot, sooo , time to move on with an another distro or is Fedora just RedHat's playaground?
I have fresh install of SuSe11.2 64x My software updater applet tells me there are about 50 or so updates required. I check all and then click install, get prompted for admin password but then nothing happens except the software updater window closes and if I hover my mouse over the applet it tells me it is updating.
however hours later and nothing appears to have happened. If I click the updater applet all the selected updates still appear in the update window. I have added all the standard repos and have network connectivity. I'm a bit baffled here - it worked perfectly fine on my last 11.2 on the same machine.
Suse 11.2 > updated Feb 2 using the Update UI applet.
I had internet connectivity prior to installing the updates. Now I can't reach the internet since installing the updates. I can reach my router, log in to the router I also ping the router but I can not ping the WAN side ip on the router.
When I boot into redmond, no issues, which is what I'm using as I write this.
I have security enabled, WPA2 Personal, not that I think that is an issue as I can reach the router, my server, network printers, and PC's.
I am running a Linksys router but have replaced the standard Linksys software with DD-WRT v24-sp2 build date 12/28/09 std. One note, DD-WRT does hand out IpV6 address but I have disabled FF from using IpV6 address along with the network connection configuration applet from accepting them. (I don't remember the applets name)
In the redmond world this would be a certificate error, is this the same type of an issue? If so how do I fix it?
I'm currently using SuSE 11.4 and after running the full online updates and restarting the machine as YAST suggested, I no longer have eth0/eth1 available.
I'm clueless about what to do since I'm kinda new to Linux and at the moment, I'm trying out all the distros before making a full commitment to anyone. So far, Ubuntu has been trouble-free from day one, but I'm willing to give this distro (opensuse) some slack.
I have installed Ubuntu and all is working Ok except when I try to add the suggested updates it is telling me I do not have enough free space. When I set it up I gave Ubuntu a 10GB partition but it does not seem to have worked. How can I add the suggested updates.

View 2 Replies View Relatedi have been running Ubuntu 10.10 for about a month or so now without any major problems and last night the update manager popped up like it does with some upgrades i needed to install. So i installed them and clicked restart to install updates. When i restarted and logged in, i clicked firefox, the loading bubble popped up and then froze (note: freezes when using transmission, empathy, and various other apps not just firefox) . I kept restarting and never made it past 5 minutes without it freezing up. So i booted into windows removed everything linux, reinstalled it, and everything worked like normal. Then did the updates again and same exact thing after restarting.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI recently installed Ubuntu 11.04 64bit to run along Winxp in a dual boot format. I have heard many good things about Ubuntu but am using it for the first time. I have used a ntfs partition of 30GB for Ubuntu. During the installation part I was asked for the size and I gave 8 GB, I read that this was recommended. There are quite a few things I would like to know.
1. What's the difference between Ubuntu software center & Synaptic software manager?
2. Can you do everything easily via the GUI?
3. My Nvidia 8800 GT works on 1440x900 on my win xp OS. Here it doesn't seem to get to that. Additional drivers window says that 173 version is active but not in use.
4. Where do all the updates/new softwares/ drivers etc get installed? I mean the path. Like in Xp I can give a path for the installation. Can I do that in here?
5. I want to install GNS 3 which is a routing simulator and have heard that Ubuntu is very stable for it.
6. How can I get desktop icons on the desktop?
7. What's the use of 4 workspaces? I mean why is it used and what are the advantages.
I tired searching the Internet but most of them just so confusing that it feels to difficult and am afraid I might break something. Plus most of the commands are in cli that I am not able to grasp.
