Upgrade 2.6.28-15 Won't Install

[lotusalive]

Hi to All, It's 'UM' again ! (lol)

I'm lost with this, so maybe someone can direct me, since I don't even know what real question to ask...

Thank you zvacet !

It's just not liking me too much: Is it telling me it won't install without nvidia graphics card ? ? (I tried to uninstall all programs that were for other graphics cards, since it made the machine unhappy and confused...)

And / But, it asks me to Restart everytime it attempts this...

And, when I tried to install software with Synaptics, I got Error Msgs as well...

:confused::confused::confused: In Preferences, Distribution, I had previously changed it from 'Highest Version' to 'Jaunty,' but when I went back to check it, it is STILL set at 'Highest Version' (I had thought it meant 'Highest Version' OF Jaunty...) I'm afraid to change it back to Jaunty now, needing to understand what it means, and what to do at this point...

[lotusalive]

Can I change Preferences - Distritribution from "highest version" back to "Jaunty," or will it cause me troubles I can't fix ?

[scolbeck]

Check the free space on your /boot filesystem. I had a similar problem that was due to no space left.

[lotusalive]

Thanks for answering me scolbeck. There seems to be plenty of room in both root and home partitions. I don't really know what you mean by checking /boot filesystem. When I go to Places > Computer > Filesystem > Boot, this is what is there, if it will help determine why I can't Update :

Thanks to all to check this.:confused:

[lotusalive]

Then, I went back into Synaptic > Preferences > Distribution, and 'Jaunty' was ticked instead of 'Highest Version,' opposite of what it was 12 hours ago, without me changing it... Waiting for a Reply here to do so... Why would that happen ? ? ?

And then here's the result of running Update Mgr again:
