Ubuntu :: 11.04 - Force Version Install Gives Error
May 12, 2011
Added software from a PPA I use to get up to date programs, during the update empathy was deleted. I went back and deleted the new software causing the conflict but empathy still won't install. I see there are two versions, 3.1.1.1 and the ubuntu 11.04 2.3.4 I think. I want to install the natty version but whenever I try force version it gives me an error. Is the solution removing the ppa? or is there a work around like downgrading back to the original software?

I have to go back to 10.10 for a while until the bugs are worked out. Can I force install Libre on the 10.10 version of Ubuntu?

I have the suspicion that the latest gdm update (2.28.1-0ubuntu2.2) broke something because the login screen isn't displayed anymore on my desktop. My question is the following:How can I revert an update or force a package version via command line? It's pretty straight forward via Synaptic but I only have access to the recovery command line so that is not really an option.

I just upgraded my storage server to maverick and it seems the 2.6.35-25 kernel doestn like the hardware im using
since im pretty sure its a hardware related problem and the previous kernel hastn the issue im currently booting this old kernel everytime i need the server by hand (using Shift during boot for the grub menu to appear)
well, it narrows down to the following question:
how can i exclude a specific grub entry - in my case the current kernel 2.6.35-25 - so only previous kernels OR future kernels from the next updates will have a chance to boot?

I run a bunch of CentOS 5.6 servers, where we continuously deploy our software. Our software comes in self-made rpm packages from a network-local yum repository. As bugs happen in software development, I sometimes want to downgrade to the previous release, so force the installation of a specific version of the package.I tried the allow-downgrade plugin, but so far no luck. Neither yum update nor yum install seem to work with allow-downgrade. (It does not seem to do anything?). Does anyone have a working example for yum --allow-downgrade?
This is what I tried:
1) Show current yum version
[root]# yum --version
[code]....

I decided I was going to compile XChat from source today for "fun." What I ended up doing was spending a few hours getting it to compile, then find out everything didn't work the way I thought it did. I was under the impression that after I ran "sudo make install" I was "upgrading", when in reality I'm just installing a seperate version alongside the old one. Apparently I have to keep the old version so every program that was compiled with it will continue to work, so how do I:
1) Force a program to use a specific version of GTK when compiling.
2) Find where my version of GTK installed to.
I've asked some people and I've just been told to "learn LD_PRELOAD". I've googled and can't figure how I could even apply that to my current problem

I've recently installed openSuse 11.4 64bit with KDE 4.6 and that's when the trouble started. If I put a data or mp3 cd in the drive it can be mounted. Simple audio cds refuse to mount, giving me only the option to play on one of the audio players. Since I wanted to move some music to the computer I've had to resort to windows to copy files then transfer them. How can I force KDE/Suse to behave the way I want or do I have to revert to an earlier version with KDE3.5? I suspected that System Settings/Removable Devices was where I needed to be but nothing I did worked. So then I tried playing with System Settings/Device Actions and again nothing seemed to work. I can't mount the CD manually,I get this (using su -c "mount etc"
mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: /dev/sr0: can't read superblock

After a disk crash I reinstalled openSuSE 11.2 and as always downloaded the latest Nvidia driver for my geforce 8200 graphics.
Unlike all previous cases, this time the driver does not install. The contents of /var/log/nvidia-installer.log are below. The error refers to being unable to to locate version.h

I tried to install the latest luckybackup software, from the official site (it was a deb package created for ubuntu 10.04, which is the version im using) and this error occured:
================================================== ===
Unpacking luckybackup (from .../luckybackup_0.4.3-1_i386.lucid.deb)...
dpkg: error processing /home/john/Downloads/luckybackup_0.4.3-1_i386.lucid.deb (--install):
[code]....
now initially, i had installed luckybackup from the ubuntu repository using sudo apt-get install luckybackup. but it was an old version (0.3.5 i think) so i removed it using sudo apt-get remove luckybackup. I also removed the folder /usr/share/luckybackup/translations and all its contents. but i still get this problem.

I have downloaded the opensuse 11.4 64 bit iso both as a direct download and as a torrent, and the md5sums for both iso images are fine.
I tried burning both, and for both of them they fail the checksum installation media test for the actual dvd.
(dvd title openSUSE-DVD-x86_640024)
I burnt them on a 32 bit Pentium 4 machine running suse 11.3, and am trying to install on an Athlon 64 3000+.
This may well be a stupid question, but do you have to burn a 64 bit iso image on a 64 bit machine, or should I be able to burn it on a P4 ok?
I should add that I had tried installing one the dvd's first, and got a lot of failed packages and ended up aborting the install.

Just installed OpenSUSE 11.3 64-bit. I have a program that uses libjpeg, so I installed libjpeg and the dev modules. It has both version 6 and 8 installed. When I run my prog and try to access the lib I get this error: Wrong JPEG library version: library is 80, caller expects 62 This seems a common problem elsewhere. Anyone know how to fix it in 11.3 ?

I want to install pgplot on my PC. My Pc is running an intel i7-860. I install Fedora13 (X86_64 version). there is no g77_gcc in fedora13, it has only gfortran_gcc. I have edited the 'g77_gcc.conf' by copying it to'local.conf' and change 'g77' into 'gfortran', and follow all the installation instructions of pgplot. For examle, I did: /usr/local/src/pgplot/makemake /usr/local/src/pgplot linux local.conf.
It seemly go through to the last step correctly, but the last step './pgdemo1' failed. It showes the same error message as other friends showed in 2008 in Fedora10: error while loading shared libraries: libpgplot.so: cannot open shared object file : No such file or directory
In fact it does exists, and if I do 'cp libpgplot.so /usr/local/lib', it showes that the file already exists. I overwrite it, no use at all.Still the same error message. In google I find an item to teach 'how to install pgplot in 'gfortran_gcc', I follow its instructions step by step, but at last, pgplot still does not work. I am an old man, not familiar with computer.

my laptop currently has 8GB of RAM and I wouldn't want that going to waste. I have read about the issues with flash on the 64 bit versions of buntu. Would you recommend going 64-bit or 32-bit with PAE? also, does the 10.10 kernel have PAE enabled by default?

I just installed Maverick 64-bit on my new Satellite AMD 4-core laptop. I've run into an issue with the fact that Brother does not have a 64-bit driver for my Multi-Function Laser printer. They recommend force installing the 32-bit driver. I have made sure that all the 32-bit library and all the folders exist per Brothers instructions. However, I'm confused on what command I need to type in the terminal window to actually do the install. Can someone recommend the proper command to force install the 32-bit driver? Or should I download the source code and compile? I don't know the proper method for compiling a 64-bit driver either.

I am using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. I have manually removed Canonicals version of coreutils (7.4-2ubuntu2) and installed the latest official version of coreutils (8.9). Synaptic is still registering Canonicals version as being installed. how I can force remove the entry so it shows it as not being installed? I'm guessing there will be a file some where..

Specifically, I want Clementine player 0.6, but the guy that installed Ubuntu on my laptop put natty narwhal alpha 1 on it (don't ask me why. I wanted maverick since its stable but he never really asked. The whole thing was kinda a surprise), and Clementine only offers downloads for Ubuntu distros up to maverick. So. Can I/is there a way I can install it anyway? Or am I forced to just use Banshee until the official Update comes out and Clementine is updated in....

Everytime I try to install opensuse it locks up at the very finish, forcing me to force shutdown. Then when I try to boot up, it loads a horribly misconfigured view of another linux install. Anyone know what is going on? I posted here alsi: Opensuse install problems - linux-free-bsd-general-discussion - Linux-Free-BSD

I need to force 80 pin cable detect on my cdrom. According to the kernel-parameters.txt file you can do this by using libata.force=(port).(device) 80c Here is the actual explanation from the kernel file: libata.force=[LIBATA] Force configurations. The format is comma separated list of "[ID:]VAL" where ID is PORT[.DEVICE]. PORT and DEVICE are decimal numbers matching port, link or device. Basically, it matches the ATA ID string printed on console by libata. If the whole ID part is omitted, the last PORT and DEVICE values are used. If ID hasn't been specified yet, the configuration applies to all ports, links and devices.
My question is where do you find the proper port.device numbers? I'm guessing it's lspci but I'd rather be sure before I do something silly.. An actual working line for a cdrw as master on the first ide channel would be excellent. BTW my cdrw is detected as sr0 so the normal "ide" boot params won't work....

I have 64 bit processor and 64 bit compatible CentOS 5.5 distribution, but some times when I run yum info, I get information about both 32 abd 64 bit installed packages:
For example when I reinstall selinux I see that previously I had both archetecture match packages version:
Reinstalling:
My question is: Is there some rpm or yum configurable option to strict installation to some archetecture, that, that when rpm/yum will try to install package for i386 when it prohibited I will get some error?
