Ubuntu Installation :: Downloading The Package "openoffice.org-core" - Stops At Exactly 20.5 MB Out Of 27.3
Feb 23, 2011
I recently came back to Ubuntu after a long hiatus. In the last week I've installed and re-installed 10.10 several times getting things the way I want them. Although I've installed on 3 different machines and updated them all almost completely, I'm having a problem downloading the package "openoffice.org-core" On every install on all 3 machines it stops at exactly 20.5 MB out of 27.3 Is anyone else having this problem? I'm thinking it is an issue with the repo, unless someone can think of something I'm possibly missing. This problem has been continuous over the last week, isn't a temporary connection issue.
So i upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04. when i ran update manager after the install, it had some stuff for OpenOffice and during the update it hung. I powered off the laptop and turned it back on, booted into ubuntu and tried over but it didn't list the updates again.
i am looking for a rpm package to run openoffice because when i try to install it it come up with i need this openoffice.org-core = 1:3.3.0-9.3.fc14 but i cant find it anywhere on the net?
Any website where I might be ale to download .deb package fr vlc media player for kubuntu. My kubuntu cannot connect to the net. So I have to use windows.
after doing: $ sudo apt-get update i get lots of hits then: Hit [URL] pdates/multiverse Sources 99% [Waiting for headers]... and it just sits there. a reload in synaptic gives: downloading file 44 of 45 ... and it just sits there.
when i abort i get the following shown in error message: Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/deb/dists...tion-en_GB.bz2 Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/deb/dists/stable/Release Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Package libxmlrpc-core-c3-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package libxmlrpc-core-c3-dev has no installation candidate
When I go to System/Administration/Hardware Drivers I have an error message:Downloading package indexes failed, please check your network status. Most drivers will not be available.After that I get the Hardware Drivers window empty..My network is working fine so I don't know whats the problem
I am a newbie to Ubuntu. I have installed Ubuntu STudio 10.04 Lucid, and to install Open Office, I have chosen the below method:
1. Went to System-->Administration-->Synaptic Package manager. 2. Here, I chose Open Office Package and marked something, which I now dont remember. 3. Download of the associated packages have been completed, but it is not installed. Around 99 mb is downloaded, but I am not sure where it is saved.
The problem is that, it is not yet installed. After the download, it behaved like it was installing, I waited, but of no use. How to install the same and where the downloaded packages sit in the system?
Since the yum repository for FC 6 is no longer available, I'm looking for a place to find the latest package of mkisofs that can be used on FC6. I could not find a decent place to download it from.

(Ubuntu LTS 10.4) I have multiple mail accounts on Thunderbird (TB). All worked fine with no issues whatsoever. A few months ago it suddenly started giving me this alert message related to my yahoo.fr pop3 account
Quote:
The POP3 mail server (pop.mail.yahoo.fr) does not support UIDL or XTND XLST, which are required to implement the ``Leave on Server'', ``Maximum Message Size'' or ``Fetch Headers Only'' options. To download your mail, turn off these options in the Server Settings for your mail server in the Account Settings window.
Obviously I checked if these settings were somehow changed. They weren't. It should leave messages on the server indeed, but I don't use no max message size or fetch headers only options. The original settings are what they used to be and how they have always worked.
The thing is: everything works normal if I start up TB. It downloads the messages, puts them in the folders where I want them to come etc... The problem seems to appear after a while (mostly a few hours, or overnight). It just stops downloading the messages from my yahoo.fr account. When I click the Get Mail for my yahoo account the above alert message pops up.
There is only one solution really. Close TB and restart it after which all works fine again.
It might be that the problem is related to another issue reported as bug # 689453 in launchpad that started around the same time (a few months ago). That bug forces me to have to end the process through the System Monitor where Thunderbird-bin uses almost 100% of the CPU and doesn't shut down.
Obviously it doesn't avoid me from using TB, but it starts to work on my nerves to have to close down TB (sometimes through the End Process in system monitor) and then restart it so frequently.
Everyday i initiated a download on my ubuntu pc and lock the screen and leave, i notice that the internet connection gets cut within 10 to 15 mins after i leave. I am connecting to internet via reliance data card - usb modem. what are the odds of my ubuntu responsible for this ?
I have a Dell E6500 with and Intel 5300 wireless agn card running Lucid x64. Wireless works fine and speeds are great except when I download with either the browser or thru a torrent or even updates. Once I get to around 100 megs in to the file wireless stops working and the only way to get it working again is to disconnect and reconnect to the AP. I have installed the back ports and tried several other fixed to get this to work but nothing has helped. One more note this happens on 2 other wireless routers that I have tried so I know that it's not limited to my Linksys.
I have this odd issue. I am new to Fedora; however, I have been able to download the newest version of OpenOffice, and install from RPM into /opt. The install goes great, and once completed I am able to use OpenOffice from all of my user accounts; however, after a few boots, or reboots of normal operation. OpenOffice stops working, and no longer launches. I am not sure why this is happening, nor do I know where to check to see what is takin place, or whether if the application is launching or etc.
I try to use Ubuntu Software Center, Synaptic or apt-get to install a package, it seems to give an error(okay, USC stops the install and Synaptic crashes), apt-get gives the traceback
Package Installer and Package Manager keep returning failed and hit but zero byte messages.. This has been going on since yesterday, and I've tried it on 3 seperate internet connections.. I really don't want to go back to Windows 7, but at this rate
I want to know that like windows there is Internet download manager for fast downloading is there is any software package available in ubuntu for fast downloading?
Are ubuntu- 64 bit packages I am using on my core 2 duo desktop compatible with core i3? I am thinking of buying new core i3 laptop as I am moving to new city .. I will not be having fast Internet access ( GPRS ), So I will be using the downloaded deb packages (In var/cache/apt) to install softwares I need whenever I format my laptop ( I experiment a lot, So I format a lot )
Version: #1 SMP Tue Aug 18 15:51:54 EDT 2009Release: 2.6.18-164.el5While running "yum update"After Transaction summary shows download size.

I just bought a netbook that came with Ubuntu. I partitioned the drive so I can multiboot and have put Fedora Core 12 LXDE spin next to Ubuntu netbook edition. The netbook is System76 manufacturer and they have put all their drivers in a .deb package. How can I use this file in Fedora Core 12?
I have created a virtual machine of a system running Fedora Core 4 and I need to upgrade it to Fedora Core 10. Based on what I have read, it iis possible so I started theupgrade process. I get an error message saying that /dev/hda6 (my root paritition does not exist) even though it does.
Does the installer need to read a label from /etc/fstab? I executed tune2fs -L / /dev/hda6 amd ,and added LABEL=/ for the corresponding entry for fstab. but the FEDORA CORE 10 is still giving the same problems for the installation process. Should I upgrade to an intermediate verson like Fedora Core 7 first?
For some odd reason in wheezy it's not downloading the packages in the 'all' architecture, this leads to interesting issues when it comes to things like installing chromium and other packages that aren't built for one particular architecture. I've only noticed this in wheezy, and i'm not sure if this is normal. If there is any easy way to fix this, I'd be more than happy to hear.When i try to do an apt-get update, it only downloads from amd64 and not all. I've tried the mit mirror, and also the one shown there or well the default one but it still doesn't seem to be working right.
I am new to Ubuntu, but have been using it (and falling in love with it) for the past month. However, I have hit a snag: I have been trying to install a new program, but cannot due to an issue with openoffice.org-emailmerge. Whenever I try to install something, apt-get freezes when it tries to update because it cannot update emailmerge. After a bit of googling to try to fix it, I decided just to remove the program. However, but I get the following message (if I use Synaptic, it freezes):
[Code]...
I can't do work until I install R and I can't install anything until this is fixed!
I have slackware64-13.0 & xfce. I installed somebody's openoffice package ( a repackaging of the rpms), openoffice.org-3.2.0_en_US-x86_64-1_rlw.txz and ran into crazy keyboard issues, double inserts of random keys when I type faster than a snail's pace liikee tthiis. I had errors from xkbcomp rolling off the screen.

I'm having some problems getting the GUI installed in my Server 10.04 installation.
I've installed the Ubuntu server 10.04 32bit with a VMWare player on a Windows XP Pro host. Everything seems to have gone ok but at the end of the install it said that VMWare items are being installed and while that happens I can only use the terminal mode or I could wait for the GUI to load. Well the GUI never loaded so I logged in through the terminal.
I realized immediately that I'm over my head as I'm more familiar with DOS rather than bash or the terminal commands of Ubuntu. So I tried to look up on the internet (from my host machine) on how to start or install the GUI interface for the server. I've found lots of things that show commands like:
sudo apt-get install gnome gdm
or
sudo aptitude install gnome-core
but in all cases I get a message that the package is not found. So I'm wondering how do I find the package so that I can install this?
I have this package dependency question for a while. I have brand new Squeeze system. I selected desktop during installation. Gnome is default system but I turned off gdm3 and uses fluxbox as window manager. I understand if two packages are tied together funtionally so that removal of either package terminates one feature. Above cases, many small packages only depends on the core packages. The core packages work fine without games, other programs.
There are so many programs that I want to remove in the system. For examples, ekiga is a VoIP program that I never use it. When I tried to remove it using apt-get or aptitude, it suggests entire gnome packages will be removed also, which is illogical. The only solution I found is I need to manually remove the package files. I haven't tried it yet.
