Re: Synaptic options will not tick



Hi,

You might want to try the following:
- Disabling the CD-ROM as an apt source by commenting them out (add a # sign
before deb cdrom...)
- Changing your mirror to the Debian CDN -
http://cdn.debian.net/debian(that is, replace
http://mirror.kernel.org/debian with http://cdn.debian.net/debian)

After doing that, try updating manually again.

Hi,
Can you paste your /etc/apt/sources.list here?
What does "aptitude update; aptitude safe-upgrade" give?

Hi

Just installed Debian 6.0.0 and synaptic. The "Officially supported
(main) etc on the first tab cannot be checked. They where checked
when
i first installed synaptic but after i changed mirrors they will not
be checked.

I still have the correct mirrors in sources list but cannot update.



Any messages? What happens when you run apt-get update? Isn't there an
option to use other servers? Here Synaptic has got such an option.

apt-get update works fine with no errors, but apt-get upgrade shows no
packages to install, i can choose between different mirrors no
problem, it's just the first tab in synaptic that are unable to tick.
