liquidzoo Posted October 6, 2003 Report Share Posted October 6, 2003 Is something else accessing urpmi at the time? Like, for instance, do you have rpmdrake open? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bhrich902 Posted October 6, 2003 Report Share Posted October 6, 2003 u were right, but is weird cause i did a urpmi mplayer, and when it ask to do it i said yes, but it just hung there for a while. it happened like 3 times then i did that urpmi.update to refresh, now is working, kool.

Guest anon Posted October 6, 2003 Report Share Posted October 6, 2003 Open a console, type ps -A and look for a process with 'urpmi' in its name. note the PID. then type (as root) kill -9 PID replacing PID with the urpmi number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
