I re-read some of your earlier emails, and it seems that you had trouble connecting (over pppoe specifically). If you never connect to the internet, and never reload the package lists (using the twin-arrow blue icon in Synaptic), then your computer will never know if there are updates. >OK, i go linuxcnc page, then check on "how to" install from cvs, well, >config'd it, downloaded it... then ./configure --enable-run-in-place as >instructed. >And, got the following error "c compiler can't create executable"... >tryed to run it as root also. > > The install procedure lists a few basic things, like installing build-essential and build-dep emc2.

If you don't see any available updates and you are sure you have version 2.2.6 installed, then you have a problem in your APT source configuration (which would make me wonder how you got EMC2 installed in the first place). If you don't have internet access on the EMC2 machine, then you can still update by downloading the package file and installing manually: download <http://www.linuxcnc.org/hardy/dists/hardy/emc2.2/binary-i386/emc2-dev_2.2.7_i386.deb> and put it on a USB stick or other media that you can read on the EMC2 machine. load that media on the EMC2 machine, right-click the file, and select "Open with GDebi Package Installer" click "Install Package" in GDebi (there should be no other files needed to do this) If this doesn't work, please let us know. You will get much better response if, when you encounter a problem, you tell us what you did, what you expected to happen, and what actually happened. - Steve ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
