cjc 0 Report post Posted August 27, 2006 (edited) Hi Gang I have been away from Linux way too long, a change in jobs, divorce (which really sucks), ssssssllllllooooowwwww dialup (26.6-24kbps), well now I have DSL - YES! Okay I used the typical easy way to do updates (Mandriva Control center), seems that Firefox 1.5XXXX has signature issues and refuses to install. I have changed mirrors and such and keep getting the same... Looks to me like I am going to have to do a manual delete of the downloaded files. Where does Mandriva store the downloaded files? Like I said I've been away for a while...back to noobie state. Sorry for the stupid question. Thanks CJC Edited August 27, 2006 by cjc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lavaeolus 0 Report post Posted August 28, 2006 /var/cache/urpmi/rpms ? not 100 % sure but somewhere there they should be had no signature problems with the ff 1.5 update though, maybe the mirrors were not in sync at the time ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Glad to be back mate! I think, M2006 is being unusually weird. Performed: urpmi --clean uprmi now locked...no problem, log out / reboot hey I'm a noob now! And I use Windows Back into Mandriva Control Center... pick a site any site for updates etc. Darned if none of them want to work...can't connect, configuration is wrong or other lame excuse... Heck I am connected...how do they think I'm posting this? Telepathy? Won't be a loss if I need to run the M2006 DVD and reinstall (nice having DSL!!!!! :D ) Suggestions?
