First Cup of Ubuntu
When I click on the icon for the package manager and click to update the packages I get this message:
E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
What does it mean and what do I need to do?
Thanks

On your terminal, just add the sudo command:Originally Posted by Sundance
Code:sudo dpkg --configure -a
Steady movement is more important than speed, much of the time. So long as there is a regular progression of Stimuli to get your mental hooks into, there is room for lateral movement. Once this begins, its rate is a matter of discretion.

Thanks, that solved that problem but there seems to be more. First it took like 3 or 4 tried to download all the files. It kept stopping the download and would give me a message it was reading and then do nothing. I finally did get all the packages downloads and started the install. But, I get a broken package message, telling me to use the broken filter program. What is a broken package? I click OK and it either starts the install and the system freezes or it gives me an error something about Alien Arena. I have tried to remove Alien Arena as I do not play games but it will not allow me to do so.
How did this get so screwed up, it's a new os install, any ideas. What happened to ease to use never crashes linux?
Thanks,
Steve
