I'm currently running 10.04 and the update manager never tells me that there is an update to 10.10 even though it's been out for two days now. Is there another way to update or fix this?
View 2 RepliesNormally Update Manager always finds the update to the next version of Ubuntu. It still hasn't given me any notion whatoever. I allready changed the settings from regular to LTS, but nothing changes. There are updates to the kernel, but I cannot download them, so I'm kinda stuck here.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI had Windoze 7 on my wife's laptop, it started running crappy so I install Ubuntu 9.10 via Wubi (so it is not a partitioned dual-boot). I did the latest update, which I think included a kernel update. When I rebooted and chose Ubuntu from the windows dual boot window, instead of loading the GRUB I see an error message flash:
Code:
TRY hd0: NTFS no Wubi(something-or-other)
it flashed almost too fast for me to catch - it took about 10 reboots to figure out that much... and then it goes to a screen that says
Code:
GNU GRUB version 1.97~beta4
sh:grub
I tried several different commands (you can prompt it to give you available commands by hitting TAB), but it said it couldn't detect a kernel. Also, before I updated, I had tried to install iTunes via these instructions. iTunes seemed to have installed fine, but I hadn't tried it yet.
The graphical package management tools like Synaptic have a nice feature where you can scan for and connect to the fastest server. I'm writing a setup script for minimal installs and would like to offer the option to scan for a fast server, does anybody know how to achieve this through the command line?

The quality of my display has changed overnight from ok to amazingly good. I assume something has been upgraded in the latest update. Is there a way of listing the latest changes? I just want to know what has brought about this amazing transformation.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am running Ubuntu 10.10. Normally when I boot, I get the choice to run Ubuntu or the Windows loader, where I choose between 7 or XP. I have just noticed that when I boot now, I do not have the choice of going into windows. This has happened on two of my PC's just in the last few days. I assume one of the updates has overwritten the grub configuration file as I still get the grub menu but not the windows option. I have tried sudo update-grub but this did not solve the problem.
View 9 Replies View RelatedYesterday did a fresh install of UNR 10.10, all went well with that. After the first log in it found the Wifi and checked for updates. Updated the system and then it went to restart the system due to a Kernel upgrade. Once I did this, that is when the issues started. Firstly when booting up, it just sat at the Ubuntu boot up screen saying:
"The disk drive for /home is not ready yet or not present"
'Continue to wait; or Press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery'
So firstly I hit S, this presented me with several error boxes (as expected due to setup/config files sitting in my /home folder), I then found that I wasn't able to connect to my wifi (not that it can't see it, just that it won't connect) each time I try and connect it just comes up saying that the wifi is disconnected. Of all the things to fail I was expecting the Bluetooth to and it didn't. Anyway the computer specs are: MSI Wind U100, upgraded to 2 Gig Ram, 320Gig HDD, and wifi card is the Realtek RTL8187SE.
HDD is setup as:
4Gig for Swap (/dev/sdb1)
6Gig for / (/dev/sdb5)
Remainder is /home (/dev/sdb6) (I did make this an encrypted partition)
Can't do any screen shots as I am not able to connect to the internet on that machine (having to use another computer in the house). I have tried to view the fstab file and I am not able to.

When I use the Gnome desktop of openSUSE, all the newer software update available could be found in the "Yast->Software Management" . So I can make all the applications up to date easily.Now I use the KDE desktop for 3D graphics development, it has better performance than Gnome. However, I can not find the same functions in "Yast->Software Management" as Gnome does. How can I find all the software update available now?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI used OpenSuse 11.2 and tried to update it to 11.4 from iso, choosing "update" in the installation dialogue. It went ok, but at first boot something failed and I got the following:

FATAL: ide_pci_generic not found

Like this. Then if I choose Y, it starts up to the login screen, but the image is blurry and unreadable. It even logs in, but the desktop is still unreadable. When I choose to boot "failsafe" mode, it boots normally, all graphics look ok. What could I do to boot normal system? I have never experienced any problems like this with Suse 11.2. If I go to the console and type mount /dev/sda1 from failsafe boot, it returns "according to mtab, /dev/sda1 is already mounted on /" I have AMD Athlon Dual Core 4850e and nVidia GeForce 6150SE, Suse is the only OS installed.
This should be simple. I am trying to run the software update. It goes through and finds the dependencies,
but comes back and says it can't find magic.mime. I see it in two locations under /usr/share. Where does it
need to be?
I'm staying with 11.1 (sic) because it works well enough, so what a pleasant surprise to find an update to Firefox 3.5 waiting for me inside YaST, I'd have expected only updates to 3.0.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to update four OpenSUSE 10.3 servers. This worked once on one server, but I have been unable to repeat that success. I use yast's Online Update to select repositories, but at the end of the repository refresh they keep coming back with 'No active update source is available. Exit Online Update now?' I get this error:
Download failed: File /repodata/repomod.xml not found on media: [URL]
It appears to connect to remote repositories, but always fails. Is it realistic for me to expect to update 10.3, or is it a lost cause? I am not ready to jump to 11 yet, but I am required to update them. I am a newb, so I am not clear on the process. Are package versions locked in place for specific versions of OpenSUSE? If so, how can I find out what the final versions were for 10.3 so that I can at least tell my auditors that they are as up-to-date as they can be?

The find command does not seem to find all files in my directory hierarchy. My home directory is automounted from a server.

Likewise, a find of a particular file, like:find . -iname *sample* -printwhere sample_file.txt resides in one of the directories that is missing in the first find command, finds nothing
