Tried to run Install Updates from the menu. Has some sort of error message and that I was supposed to run some command line program. What I really got out of the message was that the window was going to close and it did before I could get down all the information on what it was suggesting I do.

Couldn't you make the window close on me hitting the enter key or something so I could take down the message.

So, what do I do now? Re-install the whole thing and pray?

Open a terminal and run this command:
Code:
sudo apt-get update

That will likely produce same errors and terminal window will stay open.  Copy/paste relevant errors back to forum.

I tried to run "install updates" like I do every morning.  But today after entering my password I got this line..
synaptic: no process found.
Never got this before...do I have a problem or are there just no updates?

Hi - Just had the same error - then  I run the beta GUI updater I have installed - more errors - restarted and now all back to normal - Not sure if what I did helped but does seem to be ok again now.

Theres a thread about it on here somewhere - but as its a Beta i wont recommend it - maybe wait and see if someone else posts about this issue ?

I had the same problem with Install Updates. Ran above command in terminal and got
