My Mandrake Control Center is broken and so is my urpmi. The "Mandrake
Control Center" will not run .... until just now! I don't understand. I had
something similiar on cooker with konqueror and galeon, as well. Neither of
those programs wouldn't work no matter how many times I reran the program or
rebooted the computer. Just one day ...it works! Like just now. I tried urpmi
and that is still broke. it supposedly puts the packages into the directory
/var/cache/urpmi/rpms but I receive the following error:
su -c "/usr/sbin/urpmi.update -c"
Password:
the entry to update is missing
(one of Installation CD (ftp1), Contrib CD (ftp2), Update_Source, plf)
...This is getting real silly. Now urpmi works! I think it has something to
do with "fam" running. Maybe I should leave my computer on for a few hours to
allow all scripts to finish running. (I should have something was "fishy"
when the harddrive light was constantly blinking for like the longest time. I
think that is the reason I couldn't do anything involving some privileged
programs like drakconf and urpmi. Anyone else experience the same effects?
