Hello, I hope someone can help me. I have Gramps 3.0 installed on my desktop computer running Ubuntu 7.10. I also have GRAMPS running on my Asus Eee that uses Xandros. However, this version of GRAMPS is 2.10 (I think it's called). I would like to update my Eee so it too, is running 3.0. That way I can share files between computers like I was doing before when both operating systems were using 2.10. I feel 3.0 is so much better, I'd really like it on my little Eee. Here's where I get confused. According the the sourceforge site I was taken to, Synaptic is the best way to update. However my Synaptic package manager tells me I am unable to update to 3.0. If I go to Programs/force update, it still shows that I am using the latest version of GRAMPS, which of course, I'm not. I do have debian in the repository list. I also looked in the GRAMPS program itself to see if there was "update now" in the menu but couldn't find it. So at the Sourceforge site I downloaded and saved to desktop: gramps_3.0.0-6_all.deb. Now I have no clue what to do with it! I want to learn how to do more with the terminal, but at this point I am remembering nothing at all as to what step would be next. Maybe my 49 year old brain is incapable of learning new things because it seems I should have caught on how to do this by now... I welcome all and any help to get me through this. BTW, GRAMPS on my little Eee came in mighty handy yesterday at a family party :) Thanks, Laura _________________________________________________________________ Change the world with e-mail.

Laura On Ubuntu, all you need to do is double-click the downloaded deb file and a package installer will open, check dependencies and ask you if you want to install the package. If you agree it will automatically update Gramps. I don't know if the same thing will happen on Xandros.

Whatever package type Xandros uses, you should be able to download it. Tony talks about Synaptic, which is Debian and Ubuntu style. But my distro (Mandriva with RPM) hasn't made 3.0 available yet. You are luckier; there are .deb files on SourceForge. I looked at Xandros a while back. It was TOO like Windows. Even the standard Linux config files weren't where I was accustomed to look. But I didn't give it a thorough workout. Doug.

Thanks everyone but I have problems here. I did go to the wiki for the eee user after unsuccessfully trying to figure out how to add "multiverse" to Synaptic, I just couldn't find where it was done. I agree, Xandros is way to Windows-like and I don't like it as much as Ubuntu for sure. In Xandros, I can right click on the deb file but "install" is not an option as it is in Ubuntu. So going to the Eee wiki, I found the command for what I thought was the installation for Gramps (or I should say update). GRAMPS won't work at all now :( on this Xandros/Eee computer. Here is my error message: /home/user> sudo dpkg -i gramps_3.0.0-6_all.deb (Reading database ... 79578 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to replace gramps 2.2.10-2 (using gramps_3.0.0-6_all.deb) ... INFO: using unsupported version '/usr/bin/python2.5' Unpacking replacement gramps ... dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of gramps: gramps depends on python (>= 2.4.4-6); however: Version of python on system is 2.4.4-2. gramps depends on python-central (>= 0.6.2); however: Version of python-central on system is 0.5.12. dpkg: error processing gramps (--install): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: gramps >From the above error message I can see that obvi0usly python on my Eee is not the latest version...no idea how to change that. Same with "Python-central"...no idea what that is either. I guess I should have left well enough alone but I know others using this setup are using Gramps 3.0 and it would indeed be so handy to have the same version on both computers. So is there an easy way to undo my attempt at an install/undate and get GRamps 2.10 back? Or should I delete GRAMPS and start over? I am nervous about changing files on my Eee because I've read horror stories regarding the updates. Sorry for rambling, I hope someone can help.

So, I believe the best solution is to keep an eye on http://ubuntu-eee.tuxfamily.org/index.php5?title=Main_Page Then, if this ubuntu-eee version is released, save all your settings and documents, and try it out. The gramps 3.0.1 package should then install without problems.

Laura, also check out http://wiki.eeeuser.com/ubuntu:eeexubuntu:home With eexubuntu 7.10 it should be possible to install 3.0.1 from ubuntu .deb we distribute.

Had quite a few problems (posted on Eee board) trying to get EeeXubuntu up and running on the Eee. I guess for now I will keep the Xandros but keep and open ear and eye to possibly trying new and different things soon. Thank you!
