I recently installed into ubuntu 10.04 the package called "ubuntustudio-audio", it's a collection of audio apps from the ubuntustudio distribution. I tested them, and I wanted to uninstall just a pair of them... but synaptic tells me it's not possible, unless I uninstall the whole "ubuntustudio-audio" package..
View 2 RepliesThe problem below is probably related to the fact that I tried to install a 32-bit version of Teamviewer on a 64 bit system. I have now downloaded the right version, but when I try to install it I get: teamviewer6: 6.0.9224 (Multi-Arch: no) is not co-installable with teamviewer6:i386 6.0.9224 (Multi-Arch: no) which is currently installed But the Synaptic Package Manager does not indicate that Teamviewer is installed, nor does it appear under installed apps in the panel. So how do I get rid of the teamviewer6:i386?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI installed postgregresql-8.4 in ubuntu 9.10 some time ago, now I upgraded to 10.04. Everything looked like normal, but when I decided to update my packages via synaptic, postgregresql-8.4 got an error and now it s listed as broken.
I tried to simply uninstall it, but an error appears and says that the package is at a bad state and cannot be uninstalled. How can I uninstall, update or reinstall the package?
I assume that uninstalling / disabling the new package canonical-census will have no adverse effects? It is not something that I would choose to install if it was on offer, so I don't intend accepting it by stealth.

After installing xubuntu 9.10 and attempting to change double mouse click starts to single click, there is no difference.
Example:Applications tab, settings, file manger, Behavior and then select single mouse click instead of double mouse click, renders no change in behavior what-so-ever.
Anyone else experienced this?
I prefer to use the single-click behavior under KDE 4.4.5 / Squeeze / AMD64. All KDE applications honor the single-click settings, but GTK-based applications don't. Is there a way to configure GTK so that all file dialogs are indeed single-click?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm just curious if this link:[URL}which downloads it in tar form has the most recent version of dvb-apps.I recently noticed a sudo apt-get install dvb-apps option, and from what it sounds like, it's a much older version. Can anybody confirm this?The other thing though is when I successfully install the tar package, why if I try sudo apt-get install dvb-apps is it wanting to install it, as if the tar was never installed?

View 4 Replies View RelatedWas wondering if someone could suggest a reference and possible approach to troubleshooting openSUSE update. I'd always assumed that the openSUSE update (applet) would notify me and update any apps installed from any of the configured repositories.This week I found two applications were not detected and updated, one from the Pacman repository where an update was available for more than 2 weeks and another from the Contrib repository where an update was available for an unknown amount of time.I manually detected and updated both using zypper without any special repository configuration.The SUSE updater has been running regularly installing critical and recommended patches regularly without issue.Am considering
- Maybe somewhere there is a config specifying repositories and/or apps? I can't seem to find something that's applicable.
- Maybe I misunderstood that the SUSE updater isn't supposed to update anything from non-OSS repositories?
I'm currently on opensuse 11.1 and I was looking at the upgrade to 11.2 because it has the DeviceKit package I was wanting But being as the 11.2 uses the ext4 instead of ext3 it may be just a little more than I would like can I, instead, just install the package from the 11.2 into my 11.1 system or is that ext4/ext3 thing gonna hork that up ?just kinda liking the whole " my system works just fine " thing and not really wanting to reload the box..

I have a problem with Opera 11.10. I can't seem to uninstall it. There is no package related to it in Synaptics Package Manager. It isn't listed in the Software Center.
When I search for "opera" in Unity search it shows up and I can launch it. The launch command is "application://opera-browser.desktop/." but there is no file like that in /usr/share/applications folder.
Also, when I install Opera 11.50, then it installs separately and still launches 11.10 from the Unity search.

I recently installed 9.10, and when I was looking for information on it I realized that 10.04 had come out. I then went to delete 9.10, instead of uninstalling it. Now my computer thinks that 9.10 is still on it. Some details. I put 9.10 on it's own hard drive (if it makes a difference, it is an actual physical hard drive, not a partition). I was having trouble with my usb booting, so I used the install inside of Windows option.
I then proceeded to reformat that hard drive in preparation to install 10.04. I am guessing there are registry keys that need to get deleted, or something similar. I went to the add/remove programs in the control panel, but that didn't help. Also, when I turn my computer on, Ubuntu is still a dual boot option, it just doesn't do much. When I try to boot to Ubuntu it says something about sh-grub, or ch-grub.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've been downloading some programs in Synaptic and adding PPA like it's Christmas, and two days ago noticed one of my wine games disappeared just like that, from the C Drive folder. Didn't think much about it and just copied it back in (I had a backup on a different partition). Also later that day wine disappeared and needed reinstalling.Now yesterday I decided to upgrade OpenOffice to 3.2.1 and went through the "tutorial" and uninstalled all the associated packages and installed the newer version. Gwenview and Gedit disappeared as well, needing a reinstall.
Now I log on today and Pidgin and Thunderbird are gone.I'm really not sure what could be going on, I mean it all seems unrelated. Why would reinstalling OpenOffice mess up everything else?So this is more of a nuisance than a problem, because when I reinstall the programs the settings are as I left them.
