I toyed with my desktop panels, and now I don't see my update notifications, although I can see every thing else. I have the notification area and indicator applt session on my panel but still can't see the update notification, when running "ps -A| grep update-notifier" I find it running.... what am I missing...
View 2 RepliesI have Update Notifier enabled in my startup apps and I've checked that update-notifier is actually running, and I have my updates set to check for updates daily and only notify about available updates. However, I never get any notifications despite having updates available. I'm using Unity on 11.04 and I've enabled "all" icons on my top panel.

In my startup following line is present:
update-notifier --startup-delay=60
In my repository settings I have chacked that it should llok for updates daily.
Since update-manager was removed from Debian Jessie, I am looking for something similar or a way to install update-manager for 8.2. I would like a GUI.
I have tried gnome-packagekit, but some of the commands don't appear to work or it seems incomplete and I don't know of a way to test to make sure that it is working.
Other sites recommended to use smartpm. However, I cannot seem to find the plugin xfce4-smartpm-plugin in [Xfce Goodies] that would work as a notifier.
Unattended-upgrades does not meet my specifications, because to my knowledge there is no GUI configuration for this.
Though Debian Jessie is a great distro, I am finding it difficult to recommend to some newer users because it does lack a GUI updater/notifier at this time.
I used ubuntuzilla to install 3.5.2 on my IBM T43 Notebook. I'm using Ubuntu Jaunty with all the newest updates.
But now the update notifier can't stop sending me updates about the OLD firefox. 3.1.? I think... It says "firefox" "firefox-gnome support" etc.
It's really rather annoying, and instead of clicking "update now," I have to filter the old firefox stuff out before I update.
Any way to get that thing to shut up?
Sorry if this has already been posted... kinda slipped my mind to use the search function... but if you don't mind, I'd still like some answers HERE instead of just "USE THE SEARCH, NOOB!" responses.
Just checked... seems to me it hasn't already been posted... unless I'm not searching for the right thing
The update notifier displays as usual but it will no longer "show updates" either when double clicked or when right clicked and the option is highlighted. the other options in the context menu function as normal.
Code:
s7726@blackbox:~$ update-notifier --debug-updates

then there's another error message;

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have just updated my 7.10 release to the final release patches/kernel for it (as a step in the process of upgrading the installation to 10.10) when I have come across a very disheartening problem.
Prior to this update, I was running VMWare Server 2.0 with its normaal admin console at localhost:8333 and an applet install under Applications -> System Tools -> VMWare Administration Console. Now that I have updated, both these are missing or inoperable.
However, the VMs hosted by the machine are still perfectly functional. I can login to the via Remote Desktop or VNC as the case may be.
I can also no longer see the /var/lib/vmware/Virtual Machines folder or any VMWare folder at all, even when using the full root login and permissions. Find and Search also show a disturbing lack of the 64Gb of VMDK files that are the running VMs.
Any clues as to how I can track down this invisible, but functional install? I do not want to proceed with another update until I get a solid backup of the VMDKs.
I was configuring my evolution mail client a few days ago, typing in pop3 settings etc but my inbox remained empty, so i removed evolution from my applications and reinstalled it, for one reason or another my mail now loads up into my inbox, unfortunately the notifier (the envelope icon at the top right) now doesnt have evolution on it at all, only the chat program which i dont use. ideally this notifier would 'notify' me when mail arrives but at the moment this does not happen.

The title bars / window decorations are missing since the last update done about two days ago. I have AMD64 / nvidia 6600 / 2GB / compiz. Latest driver is installed for nvidia and it was working without any problems since 9.04. Now I find that desktop visual effects are selected as 'None' and I am unable to make it 'extra'. Earlier it was set as custom and I had no problems. I have searched the forums and tried many solutions without any success. Now I am running metacity (metacity --replace)with no visual effects, 'compiz --replace' brings back the problem . Is there any way of enabling visual effects // compiz now? Or do I have to re-instal the whole thing
View 9 Replies View RelatedRunning 8.0.4LTS. I can't get rid of the Adept Notifier applet because Adept Updater cannot download language-pack-en 1:8.04+20100117. It always comes up with a Requested of "no change". If I do a Request Upgrade it changes to "BREAK (upgrade)", but when I hit Apply Updates, I get the following error:
Could not commit changes - Adept Notifier
There was an error committing changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages.
I can live without a new language-pack-en, but I would like to clear it from my Adept Notifier, so I can see when I really do need updates.
I installed the gnome-gmail-notifier today and I noticed that it wasn't translated. Anyone who knows where to ask for a Swedish translation or how to contribute with one? It's a small application so I figure that it won't be much work to translate it. Not that I need to, but I like to have everything in the same language if possible.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
today I've compiled and installed gtk+-2.24.4 (needed by the new GIMP), and shortly after GTK apps look like crap. The theme list is empty except for "Raleigh", which I presume is default.
What can be the cause and what config files should I look into to fix it?
Running openSUSE 11.4 with LXDE / openbox.
Thanks in advance.
I used the update manager to update the kernel and whatever the other recommended updates were yesterday. I shut the computer down overnight and now when i try to boot into Ubuntu 9.10 i get a basic grub shell and when i try commands like "boot" it tells me there is no kernel loaded. I installed Ubuntu with Wubi so it is a dual boot system.
I've tried to access the Linux volume with a live OpenSuse 11 CD but there is no device to mount. It sees the entire hard-drive as if it hasn't been partitioned. I don't necessarily need to fix the installation. I just need to get my files back.
The update package popped up with some security updates. I downloaded all of them and then hit the restart button. Now all I see after the winboot load is the grub 'dos' screen. I can get to grub rescue but thats it. I was wondering if there is a way to download the missing files from somewhere and place them in the grub folder as I am dual booting with XP.
I have installed Ubuntu onto a seperate partition as well.
how do i install and update the antivirus? i downloaded it using ubuntu geek help but the console is saying the package is missing.

I updated my fedora 12 installation the other day, and have been working since then to try to get my computer back to working order. Here's what's up:
I ran a yum update and restarted the computer. When it booted back up I couldn't see anything but a black screen where there should've been a login screen. I can do terminal stuff if I hit ctrl+F2, so keep that in mind. I've determined that the problem is that kmod-nvidia-2.6.32.10-90.fc12.x86_64-195.36.15-1.fc12.1.x86_64 didn't get installed during the update process for some reason. I tried to yum install this file through my terminal access, but it didn't recognize any internet connection (neither wired nor wireless). I've downloaded the kmod-nvidia file to my Windows XP partition, and have also put it on my flash drive. So I need to know one of three things: How to access a Windows partition from terminal, how to access a flash drive from terminal, or how to connect to the internet from terminal so I can get the kmod file.
