Good afternoon all.
I just today (06.03.2008) upgraded my Ubuntu Hardy installation. Now I cannot start the Synaptic Package Manager. It shows up in the task bar, then goes away without starting. Anybody know what I have done wrong?
Thanks.

can you open a terminal (Applications>Accessories>Terminal) and post the output to
Code:cat /etc/hosts
Ubuntu Newbie Help: irc: #beginners-help on network irc.freenode.net

You would also want to post the output of:-
Code:hostname
Think carefully before executing commands containing "rm", especially "sudo rm -rf ", if you require more information concerning this matter, read this.
I am an experimenter, give me the most stable OS and I can make it unstable in a few hours.

Another diagnostic that you can do is to start Synaptic by typing this:
... in a console, instead of just clicking on the Synaptic icon. When Synaptic crashes, it should leave error messages on the console. You can copy them and paste them here.Code:sudo synaptic
Also, can you still install programs? For example, if you type the following:
...does it install Mousepad for you?Code:sudo apt-get install mousepad
