I have a Dell Mini running 10.10 dual booted. Accessing internet through a BT Home HUB version 2.problem solved by making the Wireless setting 802.11 B/G, instead of the BT default), now I can not access software repositories. when I try through synaptic to load Icedtea, or Google chrome for example, I get server not found 404. I was previously able to get software.
View 4 RepliesI downloaded Ubuntu last year and was mightily impressed. I'm not really a techy kinda person, but ubuntu was pretty straightforward to install and set up the packages and stuff like soulseek. however since then i moved to thailand and now I live in Myanmar and Thailand...my problem is that although the internet still works, everything else like updates, Synaptic, IRC, Soulseek don't work anymore...i've lived with it for 6 months, but now it's becoming a problem because i would like to download some more software...is there a simple solution to this or does ubuntu simply not cover these areas?

On Package repositories - openSUSE quite a few useful repositories are listed, however, only for SuSE 11.1 and upwards. Is there a way to access the same repositories for 11.0? (E.g. Contrib, KDE:KDE3 etc.) I remember that in Ubuntu the repositories for outdated versions had been simply moved to a slower server but I could use them just the same even when my version was a few years old. It would be good to have this for OpenSuSE as well. (Especially that the version I'm working on is on my machine at work, so I cannot just upgrade it.)
View 4 Replies View RelatedI just downloaded and installed netinst version debian 6.0.2.1. I've had ubuntu before, and several usb live versions...but I really wanted to learn how linux works, and it was suggested I get debian. I've been unable to get anything accomplished, other than the basic install. Can't get gnome, or xwindows. Seems to me like I need more repositories. Need a Desktop! But mostly, I guess, I need a browser so I can hook up to here!
My computer is:
Dell Latitude 2100
2gb ram
Broadcom BCM4312
I tried to get Xterm. Went su, then apt-get install xterm...it's able to 'read' everything, but then no matter *what* I try to install, I get this same answer : E: Unable to locate package xterm
So I research, and it seems like I'm lacking in repositories. Here's my sources.list. I made a backup. I'm having to *type* everything in, on this computer, until I can get a browser working on the linux machine. So if there are typos I have ethernet cable hookup. I know from past experience sometimes this broadcom wireless card can be a problem. For now, I just want *anything* to work, and get some kind of hookup, so I can finish installing. I've reinstalled 3 times, with iso...
Here's my sources.list. Until I hear from one of you'all, I'm gonna look for a better one, and then vi edit it in here...
I have a problem accessing repositories behind my proxy. Another problem, I have no access for that installation right now, but I do remember what I did.
First, this is fresh install Fedora 13 with KDE. I manually added IP, subnet mask, DNS, to network manager. Then, manually added proxy settings to SystemSettings/ NetworkSettings/ Proxy. After that,
Also, in /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora.repos and i686.repos (I mean, Core repositories and Standard one) I commented out "fedora" address line, and uncommented "mirror".
Now I can, for example, yum install wine, but yum install unrar fails totally (not found), and yum install mc (midnight commander) shows error, where I can copy address or rpm, and make localinstall then.
Trying to use Yast2, and it gives errors: " can't access installation media [url] " and this is with all the repositories that used to work fine. Not sure what it could be? I tried to use a mirror, and I got the same results.
Does Yast2 use a port other than port 80 to connect to the repositories? I have not updated the firewall since using Yast last. Have the repository servers been updated since the release of 11.3, to make some editing of the repositories in Yast necessary?
I've tried to install FEdora 15 using the Fedora 15 DVD for i686 architecture. However, after the step where I chose the setup for GRUB boot options, I got this error: "Some of your repositories require network access but networking could not be setup" (or something similar). Then I only had the option to exit the installer, but after reboot there was no GRUB and I have no means even to boot back to Windows.
How to install Fedora without networking or is Fedora the only distro so messed up that this can't be done? I've tried the Live CD/USB version but that version has no C compiler to allow me to install networking drivers after install completes. Now I was told to try the full DVD, by the full DVD managed to mess up my computer completely.
I cannot update my SLED 11 because I have the next error message about a half of my software sources:
I checked if software repository is correct - yes, it is. For example (just one of many):
The message is the next:
I just installed ubuntu because the newer versions were not working for me. So I installed 7.10 and there is no repositories that are still up. Is there any repositories that I could add from the newer ones or other distro repositories.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI am running Suse 11.1 64bit, with KDE, recently I received a pop up on my screen, "something about update problems", I used Yast 2 and selected online Update and it couldn't find updates for Nvidia and froze at that point. I dis-enabled that repository and refreshed all of the remaining Repositories individually and it seemed to work. I then went to the repositories listing and selected "Add" and selected "community" repositories and received the following: WARNING Unable to download list of repositories or no repositories defined. What is my problem? How do I acquire the list of community repositories? I can live with out the Nvidia repository for now but would eventually like to get it back.

I am running 10.10 from a Dell Mini via BT Home Hub version 2. Having recently solved an internet problem by stepping the wireless interface back a notch, I wanted to install various bits of software, but simply can not access software repositories, getting message "404 No Server" or something similar. Am I doing something stoooopid, or is there a problem out there?

I recently upgraded a couple of my systems from 8.04 LTS to 10.04 LTS. I had no issues with nfs prior to the upgrade. After the upgrade I am occasionally seeing the following messages:
mspfiles being the share name.
This never used to happen on 8.04. Generally the error "Socket operation on non-socket" points to a coding error. Could this be a bug in the kernel? Has anyone else come across this?
The only other recent reference that I found to the same errors was in this comment on the OpenSUSE bugtracker: [url]
It seems as though it is handling loss of connectivity less gracefully than it did before.
I can't really upgrade any more of my servers until this is fixed as we are heavily dependant on nfs.

I think that my computer crashed one time, while I was in middle of installing some new software, and it seems like it have made "dpkg" confused with itself - it thinks, that I still need to install "Wine", but it is allready installed, so everything is allright.

Thought I could just place a hard drive with a preloaded Ubuntu install from another machine (a loaner machine) into this one; change a few drivers and be on my way. Too many errors to count. ALSA; Jack; LiveTex all cratered and I'm tired of fighting this. I've spent more than two days trying to get stuff working and if there's anything I've learned from years of experience there's a time to cut bait and run.
A clean install on the actual hardware I'm using has to be better than the hodge podge I have now.What I would like from the community is recommendations for what to do AFTER the install.
1) where can I find the most up-to-date comprehensive and exhaustive list of repositories for the Synaptic Package Manager?
2) I like to do sound and video processing. I would like to have the program applications
Qsynth, Virtual Midi Keyboard, Muse Score, Csound, GNU Denemo, and many others that either fail to start or produce no sound to work. What, besides the programs need to be loaded in order to make these work?
3) A helpful list of recommendations on what to install along with order preference. In other words 'this needs to be done before this...' on a new Ubuntu install.
In case anyone's interested: Here's a small list of some of the errors I currently have.
AlsaModularSynth - Could not open file.Qsynth1 - Failed to create the audio driver (jack) / Jack server not running.
Errors were encountered while processing:
texlive-latex-base-doc

Qtractor - The audio/MIDI engine could not be started. Make sure the JACK audio server (jackd) and/or the ALSA Sequencer kernel module (snd-seq-midi) are up and running and then restart the session.
apt-get install alsa-utils - Errors were encountered while processing:
