When i try to update via terminal it gets stuck on "gb.archive.ubuntu.com lucid release.gpg" and all the other ones after it.

Ubuntu :: Unable To Login After Update?

Feb 7, 2010

I have used Ubuntu 9.10 for a few months. I like it because it seems faster than Windows XP or Vista. Nevertheless, it has happened many times that I couldn't log in Ubuntu after an update. I thus had to uninstall Ubuntu from Windows and reinstall a clean copy of Ubuntu again.

1. Is this common to you guys or just me alone?

2. What are the causes?

3.Does Wubi play a role in causing this login problem since I install Ubuntu thru Wubi?

4. What are other solutions in solvng this login problem?

Ubuntu Installation :: Unable To Update From 8.04 LTS To 10.04 LTS

Aug 19, 2010

I tried to update my ubuntu from 8.04 to 10.04. Because I couldn't find the update in the update manager I started the update with the following:

<Alt> <F2>
update-manager --devel-release

After checking for packages to update I first updated all the programms listed in the update manager. After this I started the update of the OS. After some checks the download of the new files started. It took appr. 2 hours. After this I got he message about some applications, which are no longer supported. So far no problems. Than I started the update of the system. After some further preparartions the update stopps with the following error message:

Die Aktualisierungen konnten nicht installiert werden
Fehler beim Anwenden
'E:Couldn't configure pre-depend jre for openoffice.org-writer2latex, probably a dependency cyle.'
Urspr�nglicher Systemzustand wird wiederhergestellt

I tried a restart of the update as well as a rebboot of the system and restart of the update. Both failed with the same error.

My system:

AMD64 (ubuntu 32 bit version)
Grub with 'Ubuntu' and Windows XP

For me the only way to get Ubuntu 10.04 running seems to install it from CD/DVD.

Ubuntu :: Unable To Boot After Update?

Dec 23, 2010

I have 10.04 installed on my daughters Laptop. After running an update manager session, the system asked for a restart. After restarting the Laptop won't boot up. Get a black screen scrolling with lots of hex addresses then 3 unable to mount messages ( mounting to /dev /sys /prod ) then a no init found message, followed by entering a busybox shell session which leaves me at initramfs: I'm a newbie at this linux shell stuff and don't want to make it any worse by scrabbling along blindly! System is a dell Inspiron 1501, Ubuntu is installed on a clean formatted single partition.

Ubuntu Installation :: Unable To Update Firefox

May 4, 2010

I've been having problems with the Update Manager ever since it tried to install an update for firefox a few days ago. I'm on Hardy, and I tried to completely remove the firefox package using Synaptic, and re-installing it, and I always get the same error. Maybe it might have something to do with ubuntuzilla? I know I used that a while back to install Firefox 3.5/3.6, since the only one I was getting from the package manager was 3.0. Anyway, here is the error:

E: /var/cache/apt/archives/firefox_3.6.3+nobinonly-0ubuntu1~mfs~hardy2_i386.deb: trying to overwrite `/usr/bin/firefox', which is also in package firefox-mozilla-build

I can't make heads or tails of this

Ubuntu :: Unable To Access 10.04 After Partial Update?

May 17, 2010

After a large partial update (including nvidia drivers as well as a lot of other stuff - sorry for the imprecision but it was long enough to merit stepping away to eat dinner), my computer crashed when I tried to shut it down, and now when I try to boot up, it takes me as far as the login screen (minus the logins) with the mouse pointer active. It plays the Ubuntu drums and then that's it for activity. The mouse moves with no problem but there's nothing to click on. Going into recovery mode causes the system to hang. I can only access my files via a live cd.

When the computer first crashed and before it goes to the almost-but-not-quite-a-login screen, it displays the following message:

Code:
/usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with status 256

I'm finding it ironic that the error occurs in a "sanity check" because it's costing me mine. Is there a solution that doesn't involve a new install?

I'm running an Intel Celeron 1.7 GHz with 2 gigs of RAM and an nvidia MX4000 video card with 128 MB RAM (yes, its last OS was written in cuneiform ;p)

Ubuntu :: Unable To Boot After Automatic Update?

Ubuntu 10.04 performed an automatic update today which required a reboot afterwards. The reboot took me into a shell "GNU GRUB version 1.98-1ubuntu6", rather than the usual grub boot menu.

Ubuntu Installation :: Unable To Update The Virtualbox

Jul 19, 2010

I have virtualbox installed under ubuntu 8.04 x64. The kernel got updated and since then I have to reboot the computer and choose previous kernel to use virtualbox. The reason is that I can't get a hold of the virtualbox module for 2.6.24-28 generic. When the kernel has been updated in the past I would just go into synaptic and select it, but this time it doesn't show and I've waited a while now... Tried searching for the package to no avail.

Ubuntu :: Unable To Boot After Kernel 2.6.32-24 Update

Sep 1, 2010

This morning, I booted into my administrator account and checked for updates. There were a number (bogofilter, for one) but also a update to the 2.6.32-24 kernel. I installed the updates and rebooted the system. When I rebooted, the thought occurred to me (from reading another thread) that one of the reasons my Zareason desktop boots slower than my laptop (55 seconds vs 35) was that I have an external floppy drive attached, and perhaps the delay was a difference in my system checking for a bootable floppy.

So I went into the BIOS when it was booting to check to see if the floppy was enabled (it wasn't). Then I selected "Exit without saving" and resumed booting. What happened next was instead of seeing the Ubuntu icon and the six dots, I see "Ubuntu 10.04" and four dots. Then I get on the black screen these errors (sorry for any mistyping, I wrote them down on a sheet of paper as I had no other computer available to troubleshoot):

udevadm trigger is not permitted while udev is unconfigured
udevadm settle is not permitted while udev is unconfigured
udevadm settle is not permitted while udev is unconfigured
udevadm settle is not permitted while udev is unconfigured

ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uiid/939af864-c1a8-41d7-9b24-91d25685b6 does not exist. Dropping to shell
Busybox v1.13.3 (Ubuntu 1:1.13:3-1ubuntu11 built-in shell (ash).
Enter 'help' for built-in commands
initramfs

Googling around once I got into work and had computer access, it seems that the problem is GRUB has lost track of what partition I should boot from? Here is a thread which might be relevant: [URL]. Before I left for work, I went into the BIOS again and looked at the CMOS settings--everything looked normal. I once again exited without saving anything. I was going to try selecting an earlier kernel from the GRUB menu on boot, but couldn't remember the key to press.

I found out later today, to enter GRUB 2 it's been changed to the shift key, and not the F2 key like it used to be. One poster on the aforementioned thread said his system would boot ok to the earlier kernel. The thread above has as its solution to either try to tell GRUB where your boot partition is and/or re-installing GRUB. I have /home on a separate partition, so if I need to do a re-install I can do so without it being a major pain. Sda1 is the partition which has the OS.

Ubuntu Installation :: Unable To Update Gnutella

My gtk-gnutella 0.96.6 apparently has become "ancient" and I cannot seem to find anything relevant inline. Would there be one line terminal command to update it? (I've never build something from files only)

Code:
ibo@ibo-laptop:~$ sudo apt-get update gtk-gnutella
[sudo] password for ibo:
E: The update command takes no arguments
ibo@ibo-laptop:~$ sudo apt-get gtk-gnutella

Ubuntu :: Unable Boot After A Recent Update

Jan 6, 2011

I've been running ubuntu on multiple computers for about 8 months now, installed on one computer as it's only OS (XP ran too slowly), and as a side OS for two others, one running XP and one running 7.The problem is, Ubuntu recently stopped booting on my Windows 7 computer. The option shows at start-up, but when I select it, the computer restarts back to the boot menu. I had recently installed an update from Update Manager that required a Restart, so when I restarted it to finish installing I left it to have dinner and it restarted into windows.About a day later, I wanted to boot ubuntu again, but my computer simply restarted, and has been doing this since (it's been about 3 days). I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it, but the last thing I installed before the update was a 1st person shooter game, I can't remember the name, but the icon was a "ka" symbol in katakana.

Ubuntu :: Unable To Update Something Called Seahorse?

Feb 13, 2011

I went to update my software and I saw the system wants to remove three programs. I googled them and they seem important but I can't update without removing them so I'm stuck. I've included a screen shot of the items the system wants to remove.

Also for the past month I haven't been able to update something called seahorse, the system says it's a broken package but I don't know how to fix it. Is this an essential program or can I un-install it?I want to upgrade to 10.10 but I am reading how all updates must be done before and these issues are holding me back.
