I have messed up Kubuntu due to the updates messing up. When I try to uninstall from Windows control panel i get an error message.
cwindowssystem32cdebit.exedelete
System cannot find the specified file
How do I uninstall?
I installed GNUCash to try it out, but ended up not liking it too much. So I went into Ubuntu Software Center and pushed remove. It was taking really long (over 25 minutes) so I restarted my system. Now it is telling me I need to first repair the installation before I can remove it.I've been trying really hard to keep my system clean and organized and now this is bugging me

View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently installed Deluge 1.2.9 so that my brother might be able to use his Droid to control torrents remotely. Immediately thereafter, I began experiencing problems with installing and uninstalling any software I attempted to install or uninstall. The problem seems to be an inability to do something (not sure what) with my kernel. Here's the output from the last installation I attempted (Deluge 1.1.9 from Add/Remove Applications)
Code:

I recently installed Ubuntu 10.10 (to make me do more work by taking away the distractions of Windows games etc) but for some reason it decided to install on a really small partition even though I left everything as default and so after about 1 day of using it and installing some programs it keeps warning me "There is only 11mb free space!" etc. and everything runs really slow because of this.
So I am wanting to uninstall ubuntu and grub so I can reinstall them but I don't know how to uninstall. In win7 if I go into Computer>Manage>Storage>Disk Management, there is no Ubuntu partition, just the 1TB partition that win7 is on, so I can't go about the "deleting the partition" method that people have given as a solution on this and other forums.

I cannot uninstall Firefox, nor can I uninstall Chromium; one always stays if the other is uninstalled. For example, if I remove Firefox, Chromium will appear in its place and vice versa. This has got to be one of the weirdest bugs I've ever seen on Ubuntu! So, how can I uninstall both web browsers?

View 2 Replies View Relatedthe upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 has proved to be an unmitigated disaster for my netbook. I have no menus! Nothing at the top (i.e. the usual Gnome desktop with "Browse and run installed applications," "Applications," "Places," "System") and no Unity buttons available wherever I put the cursor.Plus, when the system goes to sleep and I press the power button to revive it, it reboots! I don't understand how v. 11.04 is an improvement over v. 10.10.
how I can uninstall v 11.04 -- bearing in mind I have no menus -- so I can reinstall v. 10.10?
I am having a bit of a problem with Wine as I cannot remove any of the programs that I have installed in it, namely Steam. Even if I try to uninstall wine via "sudo apt-get remove wine" I can still navigate to Steam through Applications - Wine - Programs - Steam. I don't know what to do. I've even tried the "Uninstall Wine Software" option to get rid of Steam but that has also failed.

Now I am having problems mainly my wireless network keeps connecting/disconnecting then sometimes asks for the password/key for the router etc.The system also got hung today and had to hard boot.
I am pretty sure one or some of the updates is responsible for this rather annoying problem, but I do not know how to undo the latest updates?The original install could not even pick up the wireless bcs it is a RealTek RTL8191SE NIC and this particular NIC had problems with Linux drivers! It started to work by itself after the 2nd or 3rd update.

The package system is broken If you are using third party repositories then disable them, since they are a common source of problems. Now run the following command in a terminal: apt-get install -f
And the details read sun-java6-plugin.
