Another thing to check is to see if you have adequate swap, swap should be about 1.5 times your maximum possible memory, or whatever you have.. If it's smaller (if that is even possible) you could get all sorts of problems. Also make sure your system partition is big enough, the tmp folder is with it, and if you run out of disk space, you will get errors. I have my root and home partitions separate, that's why I mentioned if your system is too small. <div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Aug 28, 2009 at 2:21 PM, Gustin Johnson <<a href="mailto:gustin@echostar.ca">gustin@echostar.ca</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> <div class="im">Simon L wrote: > Noticed an extra error from the Synaptic GUI: > E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' > to correct the problem. > E: _cache->open() failed, please report. > </div>Are you out of disk space? df -h -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list <a href="mailto:Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com">Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users</a> </blockquote></div> -- --------------{ GOOGLE THIS }--------------- [about me]: chann3lz bl3nder rofthorax-youtube [free stuff]: ubuntu portableapps winehq virtualbox ubuntu-studio blender3d gimp mythtv [interests]: cloudcomputing electronics programming simplification 3d-animation music pc-games art
