Today Ubuntu shows "You can install 53 updates", but is failing when booting from ALL available versions of Ubuntu; no longert recovers with the passing of time.
Failure occurs after clicking "Install Updates", and consists of no further activity, and inability to respond to "Close". Note that "Minimize", Maximize", Resize of frame, and movement of frame around screen all still work. It's acting as though it waiting for a response from me (perhaps waiting for Password?), but no Query displayed; alternatively, it's waiting for some external activity to complete. Note that I'm *NOT* getting a Password request, neither after clicking :check" nor after clicking "Install Updates". Noticed that when clicking on "Install Updates", another window appears in the bar at the bottom of the screen saying something like "Starting Administrative Application", this disappears after about 5 seconds, and then nothing else appears. Still unable to get rid of this "stuck" copy of Update Manager except by rebooting. PS: Michael - I don't know if I have "notification area" applet; I've only installed the basic system, except for a few games. Since Symantic Package Manager is also failing in a similar fashion, I'm not sure how to go about downloading/installing the applet. -- Update-manager locks up when "Check" is clicked https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/232082 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
