Ubuntu :: Download Softwares From Any Computer And Then Install Them Onto My PC?
Mar 31, 2010
I am new to Ubuntu and need help. I have been using windows but now I want a change this is why I have also installed ubuntu 9.10 in my pc using wubi with win7. I like it a lot.
For now, I do not have internet connection and when I go to the software center it requires an internet connection for software installation.
Is is possible if I can download softwares for ubuntu from any computer and then install them onto my PC?

My internet connection is one where I have to pay according to the amount of data transferred and Ubuntu updates require large downloads. I was wondering if there was some way to export the list of packages required for an update in ubuntu and then go and download them from another PC. (The other PC in question will be running windows).I'd love to know of any apps that can do this ..If there aren't any can someone tell me if there is a way to do this? I am just getting used to Linux but I still have no experience at all with writing shell scripts (which I suppose would be needed for this sort of thing).
So in summary, this is what I want. Synaptic (or any other package manager in Linux) should generate a file with all the packages that should be downloaded. A program on the PC with a better internet connection then interprets this file and downloads the packages creating a local copy of the packages. These local copies are then transferred to the Linux box which required the updates and the updates are applied..

I am a relative moron when it comes to using Ubuntu. This is a relatively old machine and I purchased it from a friend. She said Ubuntu was a good choice to maximize space as opposed to XP. I want to find a way (and maybe an example of one) to get a torrent download app on my computer for file sharing. I found one that uses Java, but when I tried to install java it was utter failure.

I have Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope running on my home PC (dual boot with Win XP) and have received notification that this will no longer be supported and I should upgrade to 11.04. I have a slow and costly internet connection at home and don't want to download the upgrade directly onto my computer there.Is it possible to download the upgrade somewhere else and burn to a CD to run in my home computer? I see I can do this for a new install but was wondering if it is possible for an upgrade?

I just want to use 100% free (non-proprietary) softwares, how to choose between the repos, and if someone has done it before, can s/he give me some advice (like how can I avoid installing nonfree software unintentionally)
I want to experiment a bit because till this day, I did not care about it. For me it just should be working. Now, I want to see if I can do it without any problems, and experience the 100% free linux.
