I have 9.04 on a box that is running a LAMP server just fine and I dont want to upgrade it right now to 10 or 11. All I need to do is install xinted on it so I can get rsync running as a daemon, but of course apt-get cant get the packages anymore. How does one do this?
View 1 RepliesWhenever I do sudo apt-get or use the Ubuntu Software Center, I can't download anything because a message comes up saying "Action requires installation of untrusted packages: The action would require the installation of packages from not authenticated sources."

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to do a net install with the latest release of debian - but my ethernet card is not recognized/the drivers are not available because I have a card that requires a linux kernel version of 2.6.35. This is obviously a problem because I can't download any additional packages, and I can't update the version because I'm not able to connect to the internet. I have installed it, but it's only text (which I assume is because I could not install the graphical interface, correct me if I'm blaringly wrong here). So what can I do to install debian on my laptop and be able to use my Intel Centrino Advanced-N 620 network card?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI finally figured out how to upload onto Launchpad into a PPA, but unfortunately, I cannot seem to get the version numbers worked out.
For instance, here is the original version of bleachbit-bonus:
bleachbit-bonus_0.8.2-1_all.deb
And I can successfully break it down into the correct source binaries for Launchpad, but when I try a folder name such as this:
bleachbit-bonus-0.8.2-1~ppa1
It uploads to the PPA just fine, but the versioning is bad. For some reason it breaks it down like this:
package name: bleachbit-bonus-0.8.2
version: 1~ppa1
Also, I really don't care what the version name is, I just want it working so I can mimic for several packages.
I tried to install some packages using "apt-get" but every time I try to install one it throws "Aborted" message, I tried several packages and combination allways with the same result.
But If I install them with Synaptics I can do it without any problem, as I know Synaptics uses apt-get to install packages so all this is a bit confusing to me .

I can't install packages via the terminal. For example: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
Doesnt work. It gives me:
Lser paketlistor... Frdig
Bygger beroendetrd
Lser tillstndsinformation... Frdig
E: Kunde inte hitta paketet compizconfig-settings-manager
Swedish there hehe, but basically it says the it couldnt find the the package named "compizconfig-sett.This problems occurs in several situations. Every single package i try except "upgrade" fails to find a package.
Also, the package manager "Ubuntu Software Manager" and Synaptic arent giving me any solutions. Same problems. Packages arent available and such. I have a working internet connection and the GPU drivers are installed. Everything is updated. sudo apt-get install update/upgrade is done and also done in the general update manager.
I want to install some packages to a hdd from booting a live cd
eg add something lets say gparted for example to the hdd install of ubuntu
but
while i'm booted from a live cd or if the disk has been put into another linux box
I have a general question: can I install packages in my Ubuntu, just using the live-CD but no network connection?
I broke my Ubuntu(9.10) and now can not log in, so I want to reinstall gnome, unfortunately I could not connect to internet, so I wonder if there is a way to use the live-CD as a source for the new software.
I would be really happy if I don't have to preinstall the whole system.

I decided to give a new download of Ubuntu 10.10 a chance. It went on fine,I even installed VirtualBox with noi problem, But I am light on assessories,particularly gimp. I tried the Ubuntu Software Center, then I tried the Synaptic Package Manager for this and other packages, and guess what? I kept getting errors like this:dpkg: failed to read on buffer copy for copy info file `/var/lib/dpkg/available': Input/output error
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)I even found a link that showed how to include gimp on 10.04 or 10.10 with a few command line statement, and I thought that would fly, but I got the same error again. Another problem is that my monitor keeps fading to a sort of blue-gray color indicating the processor is having trouble keeping up, but I have only FireFox running, and the keyboard locks up after after just a a smaill handful of charactrers are typed, then after about 10 seconds or so, the keyboard buffer flushes to the screen.
This certainly is not typical of earlier Ubuntu versions, and I wonder if anybody else has similar problems or knows the cause and cure.I am down to the point of asking myself, what is so urgent with the Ubuntu developers that we are having more and more conflicts between hardware and software to resolve with each new release? And that they are pulling more and more packages out of the LiveCD in order to make room for something that is bulking up in some other manner? What are you people up to, make Ubuntu more like Windows with coming releases? If I wanted Windows, I would stick with or get a newer version of Windows.

So that I can downgrade them? The package management is apt. The main problem is I don't exactly remember what I upgraded so manual (apt-get remove/ then install) downgrade is not much of an option. I think I changed some python libraries that broke my system.

I have an HP EVO W6000 Workstation: Dual 2.2 Xeon Processors with 2 Gigs of Rambus Memory with 120 gig IDE HD and a DVD/RW IDE Burner. It is a 32bit Workstation. I just downloaded the 9.10 ISO of Ubuntu and created the CD. When putting the CD into the PC it will boot to the CD and the Ubuntu screen appears giving me the choices on how do I want to install Ubuntu but when I choose Install Ubuntu and hit enter nothing happens at all. It will let me boot to the HD but there is nothing on the drive. It is a clean HD with nothing on it. I'm not dual booting with another OS Like Windoze. I'm just want to install Ubuntu on this PC all by itself. I am using the 32bit version of Ubuntu since my workstation only supports a 32bit OS.
