    updater not working

    Good day everybody -

    My feisty Laptop has not been getting any updates of late.
    The updater tells me that there are updates available, and when I launch the updater it asks me for the password, loads the program, and then tells me that there is another program accessing the updater something like adept or apt.

    When I run ps ax | grep apt I get nothing, with ....adept i get nothing, except of course for the for the grep commands.

    Just running ps ax and scanning through the list I can see nothing that is trying to perhaps be updating.

    Even after a reboot - I get the same errors.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks
    Andrew

    have a go with:
    Code:
    sudo dpkg --configure -a
    then try and start the updater again.
    gnu/linux is not windoze
