Titel: how do I update with the new kano

Glad to see you guys back.
this is the first distro which handles dialup and the lan easily. i.e. can switch between the two without a reboot.

is there any where which states your goals for the future
1) What is the best way to update?
2) how do i stop large programs like open office from updating

Thanks for your help

Dave

Kano seems to be preparing a final release. Beyond that, I don't know.

What is the best way to update?

What's your current installation of Kanotix?

You could remove them, if you don't need them. Or put them on hold. This may work for a while, but you won't get security fixes for these apps.

I have RC6 and I also want to know how to update.

Is it enough to do a kernelupdate and d-u?

Thats not enough, you shall update Kernel also and after that you have to reinstall your graphic drivers if you use nvidia or ati drivers.

For the nvidia driver, just download from nvidia's web site and follow the instructions for install.

Usually you use:

update-scripts-kanotix.sh

install-nvidia-debian.sh

or for ati cards:

install-fgrlx-debian.sh

instead (last script is updated to 8-02).

look also at this :
http://kanotix.com/PNphpBB2-viewtopic-t-24272.html

for hotfixes - maybe needed- this is the code:

Kano hat folgendes geschrieben::

Nein, musst nicht zwingend installieren, kannst 2 hotfixes anwenden:

sed -i 's/\([1-6]:23\):/\145:/' /etc/inittab
sed -i 's/^[^#]\(\S\)/#\1/' /etc/inetd.conf

und

apt-get install hal-info-ntfs-3g

(für usb ntfs schreibzugriff)

auch hinkriegen.
