View 2 RepliesI have been trying to apt-get update and it fails :

i am using a 64-bit machine. i have juggled between the us server, main server, and a few other servers also....still it fails.
i tried deleting everything in /var/cache/apt/archives/ ....was of no use.
I have done a scratch install of Ubuntu 11.04 (natty) on my PC with an unrecoverable error during the installation phase. However, I was able to boot the PC with Natty but my package manager and update managers are not working properly. I am pasting below the error message shown by package manager.
Could not initialize the package information
An unresolvable problem occurred while initializing the package information.
Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the following error message:
'E:Encountered a section with no Package: header, Eroblem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/in.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_natty_main_bina ry-i386_Packages,
E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.'
I cannot get the update or software center to work now that I am running natty. When I try to update manager it says
"E:Encountered a section with no Package:
header, Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_natty_main_bina ry-i386_Packages,
E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened"
I assume that the software center has something to do with this too...
Here is how I got flash to work in prism. Prism was working fine with flash in 9.10 but the 10.4 install caused it to stop working. After doing all of these with no success I decided to open up a terminal and see what the problem was.
Here is what I did prior to finding the problem:
- Purged and reinstalled flash
- Cleared my website storage cache from flash
- Deleted all shortcuts to Prism
- Deleted Prism settings (~/.prism) then purged and reinstalled Prism.
Finally, I decided to open up a terminal and see what was going on. I made a dummy Prism app on my desktop then copied and pasted the 'command' from the properties (right click > properties).
I pasted that in a terminal:
Code:
tye@T:~/Desktop$ "prism" -override "/home/tye/.webapps/dummy@prism.app /override.ini" -webapp dummy@prism.app
It gave me the following output:
Code:
Attempting to load the system libmoon
Segmentation fault
So, knowing that libmoon is part of moonlight I performed the following:
Code:
tye@T:~/Desktop$ aptitude search moonlight
which provided me with this (omitting unimportant results)
Code:
i A moonlight-plugin-core
- Free Software clone of Silverlight 2.0 - plugin core components
i moonlight-plugin-mozilla
- Free Software clone of Silverlight 2.0 - Xulrunner 1.9 plugin
So, I removed the packages and any related packages, like so:
Code:
tye@T:~/Desktop$ sudo apt-get purge moonlight-plugin-core moonlight-plugin-mozilla && autoremove
Made a dummy prism app! Prism was working. So there you have it, moonlight is currently breaking prism. For now uninstall it if you want flash apps to work in prism.
so its not that difficult after all - just use PRISM!log into hotmail on your browser - copy the http: line and add it to PRISM then add your login detail and Voila! all ready to add to the task bar!ok so not the most in depth how-to but if youve been messing about with all the different email apps using Prism will be childs play! if not just message me and ill add more detail.

I have recently upgraded my netbook from 10.04 LTS desktop to 10.10 netbook as I really like the new unity feature.Anyway, I have a couple of prism shortcuts that I use for both my personal and work webmail (both are google apps). When I open them I select them to stay in launcher so they are always accessible. Problem is - as soon as I reboot my machine the prism shortcuts disappear from the Unity launcher. All my other shortcuts like chrome, file browser, open office etc all stay...it's just the prism shortcuts.Has anyone else found the same problem? I have searched the forums and can't find anything.PS Just in case any of you don't know, prism is a tool that lets you create a shortcut to any webpage, with a custom icon and a cut-down version of your browser (i.e. no tool bars cluttering the page) so the shortcut almost works like it's own application.

I am a linux newbie, I spent more than 3 days trying to set up the drivers for my Intersil Prism 2 Wi-Fi adapter on CentOS 5.5. While trying to Make the driver source I receive errors of missing libraries. Is the hostap driver included in the Centos Kernel? I tried with insmod hostap but it didn't work..? Is there a kernel patch with the hostap drivers? I will be glad if someone can give me ideas or directions for setting up the driver properly.

I am not able to find following packages:
1.libc6-dev-i386
2.lib32ncurses-dev
3.ia32-libs
4.lib32z-dev
5.lib32readlines-dev
Does any one know if package names have been changed?
I couldn't find an amd64 version of the package I wanted, so I forced the architecture on the i386 version I found. (The package in question is xinput-calibrator, so that I can finally get my touchscreen to work.) I later found and added the repository that has the 64 version and tried to install it. It won't install the 64 version because I already have the i386 version. But it also won't let me remove the i386 version.
