[Bug 305660] [NEW] "Applications > Add/Remove..." Empty

2008-12-05 Thread CptSkyhawk
Public bug reported: Really nothing much to say... I go to "Applications > Add/Remove..." and there's nothing there. It looks just like it does in the picture. Synaptic still works to install programs (but this is not acceptable for the users I administer), and updating still works fine with "Sy

Thank you for readjusted this bug report. I tried to look for the bug reporting that was built into gnome-app-install, but there wasn't a menu item with it -- gnome-app-install doesn't really have any menus, now that I look at it. :P -- "Applications > Add/Remove..." Empty https://bugs.launchpad

All users have admin rights (ability to use sudo, etc.) -- basically all machines are one-user systems in the default manner that a stock Ubuntu install sets up. "Sudo apt-get update" does not help, unfortunately. :( What do you mean by special configurations? (I've found one 8.04 user with a la

I fixed this on all of my laptop drives my adding the "/dev/sda { apm = 254}" into /etc/hdparm.conf after enabling hdparm in System > Administration > Services. Seems to work -- my load count hasn't increased hardly at all since. Unfortunately, I didn't get it before my load count on one of my dri
