Astrill vpn 7 weeks 4 hours ago

Hi!

I am in China, so a vpn is handy sometimes. I use Astrill. I downloaded the 64 bit .deb file from astrill.com

It will not install. I get:

MIME type 'application/x-deb' not supported /home/pedro/Downloads/astrill-setup-linux64.deb

Can anyone make sense of this??

Astrill will say 'your os is too new, we don't support this yet'

LTS to LTS Upgrade 1 year 7 weeks ago

Another question with this URL:

How do I upgrade from 10.04 or 11.10 to 12.04?

Has this:

If you choose to upgrade before then, you can pass the -d option to the upgrade tool, running do-release-upgrade -d or update-manager -d, to upgrade from vanilla 10.04 to 12.04.

Am I correct in assuming that if I am actually running 10.04.4 (not vanilla?) that the above command line instructions wo

So I recently had a crash in the middle of an upgrade to 12.04 over the Internet, and it said the installed packages were still downloaded, but it couldn't establish a connection.

I have two computers on the same WIFI network at home. Both run on Ubuntu 12.04 and both will need to update to 12.10 shortly.

There are some applications that are installed on one but not on the other and vice versa.

Incomplete upgrade to F17 15 weeks 6 days ago

I finally got the upgrade process to work, but when I was finished, I found myself back in F 16. Checking, there isn't any F 17 kernel installed, but preupgrade tells me that there aren't any new versions available, so it clearly thinks I'm using F 17. I'm sure there's a way to get things working correctly without a complete reinstallation, but I'm not sure exactly how.

I am trying to update to the latest LTS.

My upgrade history till date is, I switched from Hardy to Lucid and set my upgrade schedule to LTS Only. AFter switching to Lucid I installed ubuntustudio.

despite running update-manager -d twice I am not able to see any updates.

Wubi doesn't boot after upgrade 36 weeks 5 hours ago

I had Wubi with Ubuntu 10.04. I just upgraded it to 12.04, using the update manager. After the upgrade finished, I rebooted, but now, when I select "Ubuntu" from the boot menu, I get a command-line prompt and cannot continue.

When I write "boot" in the prompt, I get "No kernel loaded"...

Please help, I have important files in my Wubi...
