Good afternoon Thank You for help Di Jan 08 14:31:58 2013 Problem 1:Update Pangolin to Quantal and Update/Upgrade
Short question. > What is the name of software: > install Blender > install blender > install BLENDER > install BlEnDer > because Linux is case sensitive, isnt it? Of you are not sure about the exact name of the package you want to install, you can search for it. Your results may differ on an Ubuntu system (I'm on Debian Testing), but the commands are the same. You can use either 'apt-cache' or 'aptitude' (You do not need root rights to perform a search for a package!): I tried: sudo apt-cache update This is not valid. aptitude search blender i blender - Sehr schnelle und vielseitige Suite für 3D-Modellierung/-Rendering i blender-dbg - debug symbols for Blender p blender-ogrexml- Blender Exporter for OGRE p blender-ogrexml-1.8 - Blender Exporter for OGRE p yafaray-blender2.5-exporter - transitional dummy package for yafaray-exporter * So what do I have to do for install blender? I did sudo apt-get install blender. Is this enough? 'aptitude indicates whether a package is installed: 'i' at the beginning of the line or not : 'p' (Don't know what that stands for, maybe potential install candidate?) apt-cache search blender What programme do I need? Is is enough to install blender? I am using now blender and gimp and inkscape. idjc - grafischer Client für shoutcast/icecast spe - Stani's Python Editor wings3d - An Nedo angelehnter 3D-Polygongitter-Modellierer yafray - Ein moderner Bildberechner, beruht auf Strahlverfolgung, spricht XML blender - Sehr schnelle und vielseitige Suite für 3D-Modellierung/-Rendering blender-dbg - debug symbols for Blender create-resources - shared resources for use by creative applications fracplanet - Fractal planet generator libpano13-bin - panorama tools utilities morse-simulator - Multi-OpenRobot Simulation Engine morse-simulator-data - Multi-OpenRobot Simulation Engine morse-simulator-doc - Multi-OpenRobot Simulation Engine - Documentation blender-ogrexml - Blender Exporter for OGRE blender-ogrexml-1.8 - Blender Exporter for OGRE rgbpaint - simple pixel-based painting program whitedune-docs - documentation for whitedune yafaray - modern, xml-speaking raytracing-based rendering system yafaray-blender2.5-exporter - transitional dummy package for yafaray-exporter yafaray-exporter - modern, xml-speaking raytracing-based rendering system repsnapper - STL to GCode Converter and print software for RepRap machines Can I export blender pictures to gif? Surprisingly 'apt-cache search' (that is the command for the apt-get tool) finds more packages. I didn't expect a difference here. Both are not only looking for the search term 'blender' in the package name but also in the description for the package, so you will get more than the package itself. I am trying: apt-cache search update. This is producing a long list. Please somebody help to do the update from Pangolin to Quantal. Or by terminal. Should I change one file and then I can do the update? * BTW: Does anyone know why 'apt-cache' finds more packages than 'aptitude'? * Sorry I am newbie. As far as I know, there is no problem using both 'apt-cache' and 'aptitude' for search, in contrast to being advised to stick to one tool when installing packages. You are actually not modifying your system when searching. Please correct me someone, in case I'm wrong on this point. * Thank You. For search I can use both apt-cache and aptitude but maybe for install it is dangerous. How can I find the "update-software"? What is the difference between update and upgrade? Should I also update Firefox and Audacity and the rest of the software?
