Ubuntu Installation :: Upgrade From 8.04 To 10.04 No Internet CLI Only
Aug 27, 2010
I have had few problems up until now with my Hardy Heron 8.04 system. I was notified of the upgrade and decided to do it yesterday. When it didn't work, I posted last night and today couldn't locate the post even searching my posts. When I boot the computer I end up with this on the black screen: Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS dell desktop tty1
I login with user and password and have this:
richard@dell_desktop:~$
Now what? I have no Internet connection. I noticed in some error messages during the upgrade that python is not working. I can't even shut down the computer. I disconnect it from AC power and pull out the battery!
I don't know any commands, really.
Will it damage my files if I just reinstall 8.04 from a CD? I am reluctant to do this because I am afraid all my files will not be available. Better still if I can type in the appropriate commands to 1)get my Internet connection working again, and 2)return my screen to a graphical user interface where I can access system and administration, repository,etc.
One message I got that may be relevant is: /usr/bin/dpkg returned on error code (1)

Update Manager gave the following message:
Code:
Not all updates can be installed
Run a partial upgrade, to install as many updates as possible.
This can be caused by:
* A previous upgrade which didn't complete
* Problems with some of the installed software
* Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu
[Code]...

I'm a pretty new ubuntu user and I've just upgraded from 10.10. It seems to be working pretty well, except that I can't figure out how to connect to the Internet. When I click the wireless icon to try to connect, the drop down menu is as follows:
Wired network (grey/unclickable)
Disconnected (grey)
JackET N8 (grey)
Disconnected (grey)
3 Internet (white/clickable)

Loss of internet connection after upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10 Like the title says, I lost my internet connection after upgrading my Ubuntu system from 8.04 to 8.10.I used the downloaded automated method. It appeared to work fine on its initial reboot into 8.10. But I noticed the internet icon indicated loss of connection. Even so, I was still able to browse the net through Firefox. But then when I rebooted the next day the opposite was true: the connection icon indicated connection, but Firefox would not actually connect, nor would update manager. It has been like this since. This is a dual boot machine, and the Windows XP Pro side still connects to the internet as usual, no problems.So how can I make my new 8.10 system connect to the internet?
I use a Motorola SB4200 cable modem

I upgraded to ubuntu 10.04 lts yesterday. The upgrade went smoothly. but now I have a very slow internet connection. It is as if I am on a dial up when I have a broadband speed of 20 MB. What can I do to fix or perhaps roll-back the installation to the previous proper working state.

I use the CD upgrade method to upgrade my kubuntu 10.04 to 10.10.Not to mention,the ISO image of the CD is this one :kubuntu-10.10-alternate-i386.iso.At the first run I choose YES for the prompt asking for internet connection or whatever, but I immediately realise that I have chosen a wrong option, so I exit and restart the upgrade all over again.On the second run, I choose NO for the prompt , then the installation continues until it reaches the 'fetching files' stage. It pops up and says "The upgrade has aborted. Please check your internet connection or installation media and try again. All files downloaded so far are kept."
I don't want to reinstall the whole system again because I want my applications;I don't want to use the updater to upgrade because I have a low internet speed .

I had clicked on the upgrade notification in Update Manager. After 3 hours of downloading, it stopped abruptly. Now when I try, I get a message saying could not download, check internet connection. I am able to visit other sites, and am actually downloading the CD itself without any problem.

I keep getting the following msg as I try to upgrade from 10.04 -> 10.10 ... "Could not calculate the upgrade An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade: E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages. This can be caused by:
* Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu
* Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu
* Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu
If none of this applies, then please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bug report." I don't think any of the issues above apply - can anyone offer advice on how to get around or "force " the upgrade

While upgrading to a newer version of Ubuntu I noticed a warning saying that the installation/upgrade should not be interupted. Unfortunately though, during this process my computer froze up and I had to shut it down. Ubuntu no longer starts on my computer. I still have Windows though, which is what I'm using now.

I've just upgraded from Ubuntu 8.4 to 10.4 and suddenly no internet access, but I'm able to ping as above. I've been using Ubuntu for about a year now but don't know it all that well "under the hood" so don't know where to start looking for a solution.

Ubuntu 10.10 offered me a partial upgrade, so I clicked to install the updates. No problem, everything went fine.
Then the next time I boot ubuntu, internet doesn't work. The loopback interface is active, but the ethernet interface is not.
I've googeled for a solution, but can't find any.
This is the second time in 1.5 week. The first time I rebooted ten times or so and internet just suddenly worked again.

11.04 has finally fixed my Screen Resolution problems. Yippee. But now the Internet access has broken, again rendering my Ubuntu installation mostly useless. Yes, it tells me Wired internet disconnected, after repeated attempts to gain access to the internet over a LAN cable. I have tried everything to get it to work, even manually entering all the info to allow access to my router. But still No. What is even more frustrating is that the internet worked fine on the Live CD, but not on the final installation.

I've just upgraded to 11.04 on my new desktop and I'm using a wired ethernet connection. My web browsers have stopped working (Chromium and Firefox) but my networking is working because I can still run Package manager to install new packages. The system monitor also shows network activity.
There was no proxy server set up before the upgrade. Does 11.04 require a proxy server setup? Checked and set to auto detect but made no difference. I'm currently connecting off my old laptop running Windows XP on a wired connection through the same modem.

I'm running 10.04 and for several days now I get two packages that are grayed out and do not upgrade in upgrade-manager.
If I use the shell and apt-get I get the following message: The following packages have been kept back: firefox-gnome-support update-manager
The system is functioning well, but these 2 packages just linger as I process probably hundreds of lucid upgraded packages.

I have debian lenny on my computer and I want to upgrade it to 5.0.6. The thing here is the computer does not have access to internet - so is it possible for me to download a single .deb file or a couple of .deb files so that the computer can be updated. I tried looking it up on the debian site but could not find anything

I just upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10. When I restarted, I admired the new login menu, then went to Firefox. I noticed that my wireless didn't work (it did in 9.04) Thinking I'd just need to reinstall the drivers, I plugged in the computer to a working Ethernet outlet with a working cord. I noticed that Ubuntu didn't tell me that Auto eth0 was connected. It didn't tell me anything. And then I went to Google and realized that the wired connection didn't work either. Then I came here on an iPod Touch and you know the rest.
Edit: And other devices work too on the network.

I have just built a PC based around an i7-860 and Asus P7P55D mobo. It was running fine until the big update that happened today and now the internet is like treacle. I did the same update to my other (different hardware) PC and all is fine with it.
When I load the earlier 2.6.32-21 kernel instead of 2.6.32-24, the new system works as it should and the Internet is very fast. This suggests to me that the kernel update is the problem, most likely the NIC driver. This motherboard has a Realtek 8112L NIC fitted.
Has anyone else had this issue and what is the best way around it other than loading the older kernel and hoping that the next update will fix it?

today i installed ubuntu 10.10 on my hp mini 210 netbook. previously i had ubuntu netbook remix running and had no problem accessing the internet both wired and wireless; however, since installing 10.10 i have been searching for a solution for the last six hours but have been unable to get either to work.
as far as hardware is concerned i have a broadband bcm4313 802.11 network controller and am running through a linksys router which i know to be working because i have 4 other computers connected to it all with internet access. i checked ifconfig and a lo conection was listed but no eth0. i also tried downloading a broadband tar.gz driver but dont have any packages to build it and cant get any since the computer has no internet. i assume wired is easiest to setup so lets start there even though i use wireless 90% of the time. im new to linux so please dont expect me to know any terminal commands.

After my "upgrade" to 10.04 I am unable to access the internet at home with wireless using Firefox, but am able to access the router. I am however able to access the internet at work, both use WPA password protection. I was also able to do the updates over wireless at home, despite not being able to access the internet. I am currently at work, and downloaded Google Chrome and did not import settings from Firefox, to see if there were any settings issues with Firefox itself.

An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade:The package 'skype' is marked for removal but it is in the removal blacklist.
This can be caused by:

* Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu

I am trying to upgrade from 10.4 to 10.10. I have never had a problem upgrading before with the Update Manager. Now I get an error message when using the Update Manager. The message says, "Could not calculate the upgrade". See screenshots. I also checked the package manager for broken packages and came up with nothing.
