Feasibility of my final year project?
Hello developers!!!
Myself and 2 other friends have an idea for our B.Tech final yr pjt(Duration of 3 months)
We hope u guys can help us.
Objective:To avoid ubuntu system crashes due to incompatible updates.
eg: I installed 9.04 and installed recommended updates and it produced no display thereafter in the monitor(erratic unclear display rather).
Idea: Develop a system module which checks if new updates are compatible to dependent softwares by
(i)installing the update(s) in some kind of virtual OS environment(We have no idea reg such virtual OS environment).
(ii)If not compatible, don't install that update in normal OS mode.
eg:I installed NetBeans IDE and it is dependent on some system file,say X.
If Update Mgr finds and lists a new verion for X,if installed,it might cause NetBeans not to work correctly.
So we will install that update and run NetBeans IDE in virtual environment and if crashed,we will not install that update.
-Thank you,
K.Arun Prabhu
