    dapper-updates

    On the front page says that if we want to update and we already have Dapper we just neeed to make sure that our packages are updated to dapper-updates. Is this a repo or what he meant to say?

    Re: dapper-updates

    I'm trying to figure out how to make Kubuntu check to see if there are any updates that needs to be done to the system.. Also, I'm trying to figure out how to install FireFox.

    Adept doesn't look like it can install programs outside of KDE. So I decided to try and get Synaptic Package Manager by typing the following command:

    sudo apt-get install synaptic

    I get the error message saying something about package synaptic is not available, but is referred to by another package.

    Thanks

      @tikal: dapper-updates is a repo included in the default installation.
      deb http://xx.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper-updates main restricted
      or something like that. If you have enabled most of your repositories and have been upgrading regularly the past few weeks, then you're most probably running 6.06.1 right now. To check, enter in Konsole:
      Code:
      lsb_release -a
      @crackerjack: Kubuntu already does that. Adept Notifier is started when you startup KDE and runs silently in the background. It periodically checks if there are upgrades available and shows a notification icon in the status bar if there are any.

      Looks like you are having problems with your repositories, that's why you're not able to install anything.

      Oh, Adept can install anything as long as it's in a repository.
