apt-get -f install

This command does the same thing as Edit->Fix Broken Packages in Synaptic. Do this if you get complaints about packages with "unmet dependences".


Fast när inte Synaptic package manager klarar av att lösa problemet får man ta i med hårdhandskarna (hoppas jag inte behöver installera om operativsystemet!). Första hårdhandsken blir att lära sig mer om "Recovery mode". Det skulle kunna funka enligt nedanstående inlägg:

Thanks that worked great!

Jahaja, fast först måste man kanske fatta vad GRUB är?

A computer's central processor can only execute program code found in read-only memory (ROM), random access memory (RAM), or (for some computers of the 1950s through 1970s) switches on an operator's front panel. Modern operating systems, application code, and data are stored on nonvolatile data storage devices, such as hard drives, CDs, DVDs, flash memory cards (like SD cards), USB flash drives, and floppy disks. When a computer is first powered on, it usually does not have an operating system in ROM or RAM. The computer must execute a relatively small program stored in ROM, along with the bare minimum of data needed to access the nonvolatile devices from which the operating system programs and data may be loaded into RAM.
The small program that starts this sequence is known as a bootstrap loader, bootstrap or boot loader. This small program's only job is to load other data and programs which are then executed from RAM. Often, multiple-stage boot loaders are used, during which several programs of increasing complexity load one after the other in a process of chain loading.

GNU GRUB (short for GNU GRand Unified Bootloader) is a boot loader package from the GNU Project. GRUB is the reference implementation of the Multiboot Specification, which provides a user the choice to boot one of multiple operating systems installed on a computer or select a specific kernel configuration available on a particular operating system's partitions.
