Hi :)

The 9.04 was not an LTS release and might not be supported anymore.  That is
possibly why you are having trouble accessing the repositories to install
programs.  There are tricks to upgrading the system to avoid having to re-format
the partition.


Could you get to a command-line and give us the result of

sudo fdisk -

Disk /dev/sda: 640.1 GB, 640135028736 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 77825 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

where "-l" is a lower-case "-L".  This will show us how your partitions are laid
out.  Do you know if you already have a separate /home partition to keep your
data&settings safely away from the rest of the OS?  Don't worry if you don't
know as the fdisk command will give us a clue.

On the other hand it could just be that they are having temporary server
troubles.
http://linuxmint.com/
"We’re experiencing server issues with the Linux Mint repository at the moment.
While we’re investigating the problem, you can switch to one of our mirrors by
launching the “Software Sources” tool. From mintMenu:
Menu->Administration->Software Sources From the command line: sudo
software-properties-gtk Then simply click on “Download from Main Server”, select
“Other”, and choose a mirror"

Try the advice from their website first.  If that doesn't help then perhaps
consider downloading Mint 10 although waiting for Mint 11 might be better if you
can hold-out that long.  Ubuntu 11.04 has just been released a few days ago so
Mint 11 will follow.


I have downloaded everything from the LibreOffice website.

libobasis3.3-en-gb-help_3.3.2-19_amd64.deb when I try an open from within nautilus as root

I get "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libobasis3.3-en-GB"

I installed the US help file from the package manager and it worked fine.

Problem solved.   Thanks.


Good luck and regards from
Tom :)

Subject: [libreoffice-users] Help file downloaded does not appear

I am running 64 and 32 bit Linux mint 9 (based on Ubuntu LTS 9.04)

After downloading the core package.  English dictionary and Help file.

It tells me Help is not installed.

I have used the Synaptic Package manager to re install it to no avail.

Thesaurus does not work either.
