Hi Tormod, The package is certainly not update-manager, since it was not open at the time, unless it was somehow still in the memory. It was in fact synaptic that crashed, after failing to download the WLAN stuff.
The checksum did not match: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ md5sum /dev/cdrom 5c678a2a0a7456775107068be5ee8c21 /dev/cdrom [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ 81a5c425f5b004a7e24b8be15f925371 *intrepid-desktop-i386.iso 81a5c425f5b004a7e24b8be15f925371 torrent (which I used) I do not think necessarily that this was the problem though. I switch the CD out of the tray before the download (or installation?) finished, to replace it with an aptoncd I had previously created. I had problems before with rebooting into the 2.6.27-2.2 kernel (the paravirtualisation thing). To avoid this I must make sure I am fully up to date in 2.6.27-1 and boot into that kernel, and manually download all 2.6.27-2.3 stuff and do $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a and install or update missing dependencies, and reboot into 2.6.27-2.3 afterwards. I did not realise that synaptic would had to read from my CD for these packages, since it was already downloading packages from the web. Now that I know this, I will redownload the CD anyway, although it works fine. Hi there, I think it is impossible to describe this bug on a single bug per bug report basis. Could you please check out my post about BIOS settings being altered, possibly by are in relationship with the consolekit bug(s)? The reason I initially described this bug as a potential security risk, is due to the fact that it did lead under a previous form to a freeze up of synaptic, leaving my password visible on screen for more than 2 hours (see slideshow). Since this bug is difficult to invoke on purpose, but often occurs and leaves my system unrepairable about every three days, forcing me to reinstall without partitioning, I think it is better to bundle my experiences on the ubuntu forum first: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=912682 -- package linux-wlan-ng None [modified: /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-wlan-ng.list] failed to install/upgrade: cannot access archive: No such file or directory https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267607 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
