View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to upgrade from Opera 10.10 to 10.60. I can't figure out how to do this. I thought it was supposed to give me the choice to make a fresh install or upgrade, but there is no such thing that I can find. I have looked on the Opera Downloads page and on the Synaptic package manager page. Neither of them give me the option to upgrade, only a new install. I would like to keep my old preferences, passwords, etc. I need to upgrade to fix the problems with unresponsive flash players (....., etc.)

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have upgraded to 10.10 from 10.04, a a200 laptop, real old desktop (Pentium 4 with sdram), and did a complete install on a I5 with 4G of ram without any problems at all. However I could not find the "software source" option that was under Administration in 10.04 and earlier. I am in Australia and getting all of the updates from the main U.S. based server is a really slow. I used the optus server before and got much quicker updates. Is there a choose server option in 10.10 that I missed?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to automate an svnadmin dump command for a backup script, and I want to do something like this:
find /var/svn/* ( ! -name dir -prune ) -type d -exec svnadmin dump {} > {}.svn ;
This seems to work, in that it looks through each svn repository in /var/svn, and runs svnadmin dump on it.
However, the second {} in the exec command doesn't get substituted for the name of the directory being processed. It basically just results a single file named {}.svn.
I suspect that this is because the shell interprets > to end the find command, and it tries redirecting stdout from that command to the file named {}.svn.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe are running Ubuntu and I want to install an oldish drawing program (inkscape, although that's not relevant). The configure file for inkscape wants libpng and the configure file for libpng wants something called "zlib" which it checks for via the "-lz" option.
There appears to be something available online called zlib but it only makes "uncompress.so" I am getting absolutely nowhere trying to figure out whether I should just rename it as libz.a (seems wrong) or whether I even have the right package to make whatever libpng wants when it is asking for the "-lz" option.

Running The GNOME Panel 2.30.0, and since I'm using Avant Window Navigator, I'd like to hide the last panel.

I've been looking around but I always end up getting a 1px panel on top. Anyone has any suggestions for this?
