The graphical installer uses packagekit. This doesn't close when you close the
installer. So if you want to use opkg after having used the installer,
run killall packagekit first.

Installed the Om2008.8 images announced today and so far I'm very
impressed. I think this is probably good enough for me to start using
the Freerunner as my daily mobile device.
However, I just ran into a small issue that I thought I'd post here in
case someone else runs across it. To test the graphical installer
app, I launched it and installed something ... it worked nicely. I
then went to a terminal to install something else but I was getting
this message:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# opkg list
Collected errors:
* Could not obtain administrative lock
I then found this thread:

I expected my problem to be the same, but it wasn't:

/usr/bin/pulseaudio sniped
I have no idea what pulseaudio was doing with opkg ... maybe updating
itself or some component? Anyway, maybe this will help someone else.
