Hi all. I finally managed to update my mandrake 9.2 yesterday. I tried
deleting the lock file from the /var/lib/urpmi file as directed by
Derek, but was denied permission. So I thought I would change the
permissions and then delete the lock file. After adding the permission
to the /var/lib/urpmi directory I was able to download the update files
without even deleting the lock file. Should I still delete the lock
file? It took about 3 hours on my dial up connection to download the
updates but it went without a hitch, I thought. KMail has likewise
apparently been obliterated.
When I booted up today I found that I no longer have the icons for any
of the OO.o programs in my kicker/panel. In there place are several gear
icons leading to nonexistent directories/files.I checked the "Office"
heading on my main menu and there is no sign of OO.o there either. What
did I do wrong? What must I do to get my OO.o programs back?
I also now find that I have 20+ Gzip files in my /var/lib/urpmi
directory. Should I do something with these? Are they even supposed to
be there?
I also now have about 30 text and XML files and about 24 directories in
my home directory Which weren't there previously. Is this expected?
Should I remove the added permission for/var/lib/urpmi?
Also I no longer have any sound.
Any and all suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
