I recently installed Kubuntu making my first transition onto the Linux Scene being your average windows user before.
Everything was going great untill i installed a certain program with adept, cant remember the name. Whilst installing it hanged at which point i closed adept and tried again (probably the mistake in all of this). low and behold, when i restarted i can only use it in read-only mode due to 'another process using the packaging system database', i checked through task manager and i shut down everything i could think of that was associated (e.g. looked for apt-get, adept etc) and still wouldnt run. i restarted the computer, several times now, and still no change. I really need for the entire process/database to be reset, or the name of which process is still using the database so i can shut it down.
Any help would be great, thanks.
