[ubuntu-in] Firefox 3 in beta version
Hi, Installed Ubuntu 8.04 on 17/8/2008. I opened Firefox to see that it is still in version 3.0 b5 (beta 5). Why so? The stable release 3.0 of Firefox was was out on July. The current version is 3.01. But even after updating my Firefox through update manager, it is still in the beta version. Can anyone tell me the reason?

[ubuntu-in] Upgrading from Ubuntu 7.04 to 7.10
Hey, Both the previous replies to my post referred to upgrading through download method. But that will add tremendously to my broadband bills. I have already received my brand new Ubuntu 7.10 live CD. Can I upgrade from this CD? As far as I have gone, it has only the option of fresh install. I know that I can upgrade through through the Alternate Install CD. But can I upgrade from the supplied live CD?

[ubuntu-in] Upgrading from Ubuntu 7.04 to 7.10
Hi, Can you please give me a step by step guide to upgrade from Ubuntu 7.04 to 7.10 using the command line interface? The graphical method using update manager or synaptic package manager just hangs my system. I can't afford to go for fresh install as I will lose valuable data.

[ubuntu-in] unable to install ubunt 7.04 on my system
Alternate install CD is the installation CD which cannot operate as a live CD. The regular CD has dual function, it can operate both as a live CD and also as an installation CD. The regular CD requires more RAM than the alternate CD. If you are unable to get the alternate CD, than try installing from the regular CD after increasing your RAM.

Searching with your keywords produced about *269,000 *results and the first few results provided links to software which migrates foxpro database to MySQL database. My requirement is to convert my code and not the database. Perhaps you can be more specific and tell me which of these *269,000 *results is relevant for me.

MySql, PostGRESql, or SQLite are OK. But my question was whether I shall be able to port all my "Foxpro for DOS" programs to linux platform. Is reverse engineering an option? Otherwise, I have to rewrite all my projects. That is a tedious task. I do not know about SQLite. What are its differences from MySQL?

[ubuntu-in] CD burning package
Hi, Please suggest me which package is best for CD writing. I want to create data disk, VCD, audio CD, etc. In the windows environment, I was familiar with NERO BURNING ROM. So it would be better for me to find a linux package which has similar interface and functionality.

So I agree with Amit that it may not be the issue. In the command mode, the system gets updated really fast. I am afraid the subject line of this message is different. I shall again place my problem in the forum with proper subject so that many others can notice. Others may have the same problem.

I am really thrilled! Which area of Siliguri do you belong? Where do you stay now? I am from Hakimpara. Hope to meet you in person someday. Right now the problem I am facing is that whenever I try to update my system using the update manager (by clicking on the notification icon) my system hangs. Though I can update my system through the terminal by the command "sudo apt-get install", I still wonder why can't I do it in the graphical mode? Is there any solution?
