Updates killed my Kubuntu

Re: Updates killed my Kubuntu

Ok.

1. Open Adept Updater
2. Deselect all upgrades
3. Select the Adept files and request update
4. Apply updates
5. Open Adept Updater
6. Deselect all upgrades
7. Select libqt3-mt and request update
8. Apply updates. This will give you an error - specifically that the libqt3-mt library is not configured. Close the updater.
9. Open a console and type in the command

sudo dpkg --configure -a

this will ask you which action you wish to take. You DO want to write the new configuration so press 'I' or 'Y' and press enter.

You should now be able to update everything correctly. I still took the cautious route and applied a few at a time. I also still got an error on the TTFs but everything else is seems good. Following Snowhog's instructions doesn't fix this error.

So if anyone has any idea as to how to fix my TTFs it would be most appreciated.

Re: Updates killed my Kubuntu

Well.. I was choosed that "Safe Update".. But was the same.. After updates.. System crashed.. I think KDM and KDE crashed... I just didint reformated this time... Booted into Kubuntu Recovery mode and typed in console

sudo apt-get remove kdm
sudo apt-get remove kde

And after that reinstalled KDM and KDE by typeing

sudo apt-get install kdm
sudo apt-get install kde

Well I am totaly n00b on Kubuntu, maybe was any other diffrent ways. But this one was good for me. After that i logined into Kubuntu i seen ADEPT was searching for updates, and it just said that my system is up to date Now Useing Kubuntu+Compiz and cant see any problems
