Ubuntu :: Language-pack-en Failed To Upgrade?
Jan 29, 2010
I am using since from last septmber Ubuntu 8.04 LTS which I keep update through Update Manager on daily basis, I am a beginner with Linux systems. Today Update Manager offered 9 updates but one of them, language-pack-en can't be selected from the list and can't be upgraded. If I try to install it manually from terminal session (sudo apt-get install language-pack-en) I get this message :

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that the package is simply not installable and a bug report against that package should be filed. The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
language-pack-en: Depends: language-pack-en-base (>= 1:8.04+20100117) but 1:8.04+20090105 is to be installed
E: Broken packages
fabrizio@fabrizio-desktop:~$
I reinstalled with Synaptic language-pack-en-base and it seems to be updated to last version 8.04+20090105

I can't find how to fill a bug or ask a question on launchpad (there are only answers!), so I do it here.
I have the language-pack-gnome-fr installed in Lucid x64. Since yesterday there's an update, but it won't install code...

How do I remove all the language packs installed with Firefox 4? I have English US, English GB and English South Africa, and I don't need any of them. As of now, I can only disable them. I can't find any mention of them in Synaptic. Firefox 4 on fully-updated Ubuntu 10.04 x86-64 here. I just saw that there is a FF4 'Mega Thread'; They are in /usr/lib/firefox-extensions/. I deleted *.xpi files and it worked without issues.

I just posted this issue in the server section. I see now that it probably should go here but didn't see a "move" option.
Unless this issue is immediately familiar to someone, my question really is how can I troubleshoot a failed installation attempt?
I built a simple file server. It was running 10.04 with Samba fine for about 6 months. It was a RAID 1 system using LVM and no encryption.
I recently discovered that one of the drives was already failing with a bunch of bad sectors. So, I decided to replace the drives and re-install everything. However, for some reason, it's not finishing the install. It gets to 94% and "Configuring language-pack-en-base" and just hangs. No drive light activity. I've waited hours and it never progresses.
Some details of the server:
Two WD 1.5 TB drives.
RAID 1
Adding encryption this time.
LVM
Partitions: boot, root, swap
I have tried several variations. Putting the boot partition in or out of the LVM. Went back to 10.04. Even tried to re-install on the same old hard drives that I'm replacing. All of these variations result in the exact same issue.
The two differences that I can think of are adding encryption and that the motherboard firmware has been updated since the last install.

I finished installation and downloaded updates, went to the Software Center and downloaded Anki. However, when I try to download a language flash-card pack (or whatever it is) I get an error saying the "File is corrupt or not in the Anki database." It says this for any download

I have some music in another language, but when I open the songs in Banshee, their song names just come up as weird characters (like μ).I went to [System --> Administration --> Language Support] and installed support for that language, but the songs still come up like μ. (But in Nautilus, their proper names show).
I know the solution is to change my whole system language to that language, but I don't want to do that, as I am not very fluent in it. Is there any way to enable support for that language while keeping English as the language used to display my desktop?

One computer .... three users .... three languages. How do you make that happen? User A speaks English and is happy with English. No problem. User B needs to use Chinese and would like the full system in Chinese. User C needs to use Thai and Chinese. They would prefer their menus to be in Thai and can use iBus for Chinese entry. How do you set up the system so that each user can select their system language when they login?

While installing Ubuntu 10.10 I chose the wrong language for my keyboard. I tried to fix this in keyboard preferences and it seemed to work. The correct one I need is USA (and don't know exactly the difference between USA and USA alternative international). But every time I boot my laptop I get the old language back (Dutch) while USA is above the others in my preferences.

I've been using Ubuntu since 6.04, not a linux guru by any means but can usually get myself out of trouble.
So, the issue... I installed 8.04 on my mother's laptop some time back as she was having trouble keeping Win 2000 running (she has a low spec no-name generic laptop btw). I live in Autsralia and she in England, i thought i could better support her if she was running Ubuntu... All has been well with 8.04 but with the new LTS release (10.04) i thought i'd talk her through the upgrade... Did the online upgrade via Update Manager, all seemed to go OK but when she went to log on after restart she got an error saying 'authentication failed' even though we are 100% sure we have the user name and password correct... Tried to do a ctrl+alt+F1 to by pass the GUI log on but couldn't get the terminal session to open up, just got a black screen - no command prompt.
So... thought OK re-install... downloaded the ISO, burned and sent her a CD in the post... talked her through the re-install, all seemed to go well (again) - BUT, after restart, couldn't log in "authentication failed" again...
So, remember i'm trying to talk a novice through all this... any thoughts!?!
If i can get her to log in i can then support her via some kind of remote sesion or other screen share... and it wont cost me a small fortune in international calls!!! But if i can't get a log in, i'm dead in the water!?

i recently got a french msi wind U100x running on linux suse enterprise 10 sp1. (i am french and wanted a light netbook with french keyboard)i am totally new to linux and i believe that msi wind is not helping.because i am more used to english for settings, i set the main language to english, but it seems that it automatically reconfigures my keyboard mapping to english as well, so that azerty becomes qwerty.i reset it back to french, so now my keyboard is french, but so is the system.is there a way to differentiate keyboard from main user setting language?

So, weird thing happens since I upgraded to 9.10. I have no idea what causes it nor can I find a fix. Could be an Mplayer thing, but the symptoms are odd.
I frequently play music or video on shuffle. The typical command is: mplayer * -shuffle
Since the dist-upgrade, this gives:
Playing foo.avi.
VobSub: mpeg_run error
No matching VOBSUB language found!
Seek failed
For every file except the first in the list, so only when it moves to the second file. If I hit enter (for moving to the next file on the list) before the first is finished, everything proceeds normally. If I let it go to the second file on its own, the above message shows for each remaining file and Mplayer quits.
Now the weird part (that I'm hoping is diagnostic): after this has happened, my command line interface doesn't seem to know in which directory it is. The command prompt shows the expected (unchanged) directory and typing 'pwd' gives the same, but tab autocompletion seems to think it's one dir up the tree, and sometimes suggests completions that don't seem to exist anywhere (eg. when I type mpla[tab] it suggests mpla/, which doesn't exist). Typing 'cd .' fixes that weird behavior. I've reinstalled mplayer to no avail.

I upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10 from 9.04; 2 days ago using an alternaate CD. Everything went fine and after the install I ran System Update and got all the latest updates too. Now when I boot the PC to Ubuntu, after a while it pops up a dialog box, saying:
Code:
Ubuntu is running in low graphics mode, you may need to update your configuration to solve this:
(EE)Intel(0):I380 DMA Initialization Failed!
The screen is also in a frame, it never fits the monitor screen completely, however I can change the screen resolutions, it displays
Code:
Unknown
in System->Pref.->Display
There is also the problem with compiz, I'm unable to turn on the Visual effects. I do not have any propriety Grpahic Driver Cards, just the default provided by Intel.
Xorg.conf
Code:
# xorg.conf (X.Org X Window System server configuration file)
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using values from the debconf database.
# Edit this file with caution, and see the xorg.conf manual page.
# (Type "man xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only* if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg package.
# Note that some configuration settings that could be done previously in this file, now are automatically configured by the server and settings here are ignored.
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated again, run the following command:
# sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

I recently tried to upgrade to 10.04 and it failed somewhere on the installation process. I managed to get the machine to boot and go into gnome but now very few programs will actually launch (terminal, nautilus and firefox is about it) and the install/update software reports al sorts of dependency issues

I had installed Ubuntu 8.04 and partitioned my drive to share 500gB with Windows XP. All was good. When I saw that Ubuntu 10.01 was available I downloaded it to update the 8.04. Ididn't want to have to redo all my configurations so told installer not to update config files. No entry in GRUB no boot. Tried to re-install 8.04 to replace 10.01 and get back to intial state. Current state Ubuntu won;t boot, XP still OK but don't know how to clean up my mess. I've attached a copy of a boot info script I ran.
Code:
Boot Info Script 0.55 dated February 15th, 2010
============================= Boot Info Summary: ==============================
=> Grub 0.97 is installed in the MBR of /dev/sda and looks on the same drive in partition #6 for /boot/grub/stage2 and /boot/grub/menu.lst.

I ran the software manager upgrade/update install of 11.04. When I reboot almost immediately a quick error flashes on screen that says something like "missing prefix" then it goes to an unfamiliar menu with kernel choices that are very old and look nothing like my desktop. I think it may be some old install or something I dont know. I have an eee pc. I originally installed with WUBI but have done other kernel upgrades with no issues.

Will attach any logs requested; but I'm about to scrap the failed install and start over, 'cuz I want to test 10.04 LTS and the new Vmware Workstation 7.1--64 beta. The only thing I can think of is that I did not boot into the new kernel ( apt-get upgrade ) before doing the dist-upgrade. I've done a few of these dist-upgrades in the past this way; 6.06-LTS to 8.04, 8.04 to 9.x, etc

I have an Proliant DL380 that I use as a home server/router that I attempted to upgrade to Lucid. The gui upgrader first attempted to upgrade to 9.10 (as expected.)
I believe grub was incorrectly installed/updated. Not quite sure if grub2 was installed. The machine boots to a maintenance prompt. The partitions seem to be mounted read-only because of errors. The grub menu only shows an 8.04 kernel choice, even though all 9.10 packages were downloaded and, I believe, installed. The gui upgrader did fail with an error right before the "cleaning-up" stage. After "messing around" with it, the upgrader said I needed to reboot. So, I did and my problems started.
I tried booting the 9.10 Kubuntu cdrom and also a Knoppix 6 CD, but neither one would boot properly (gave me a BusyBox prompt.) So, I guess they don't like the Smart Array 6.
what I could try to fix and upgrade to 10.04? I really don't want to lose my configuration files (dhcp, firestarter rules, apache, squirrelmail, NFS, etc.)

I've got 10.10 running trying to recover files from 10.04/10.10 I don't know what to call it. I did update-manager -d but all I get is a bunch of failed packages when I try to run it, so I downloaded the full RC iso. Now I'm trying to recover my stuff from the HD using a live-usb. The only problem is, when I try to copy the files onto my SD card, I do not have permission to access some of the stuff on the HD and some of the stuff like the "Desktop" I do.

Fail to fetch 2 ppa.launchpad.net addresses and another cause the upgrade to terminate. The error messages suggest some type of network error. Should I wait a week and try the upgrade again?
