<font style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10pt">Hello Dane,<BR><BR>Currently the running vm has (apt-get upgrade) latest packages upgraded. This upgrades is done on the 'base' of virtual machine. In click2try vm , if something is applied on 'base' then that is present for running instance of vm. You might see some 'numbers of pakage' still needs to be upgraded . Its because 'app' layer also has apt-get info (database) just like 'base' which misguides user. This misguiding information is something which we still need to work on and will be fixed soon.<BR><BR>If you have observed something different or specific location then please share your thoughts. we will be happy to provide you more details. <BR><BR>Now about error ,<BR><BR>"dpkg: error processing gnome-power-manager (--remove):<BR>failed to delete `/etc.dpkg-tmp': read-only file system". <BR><BR>Its because at present , if 'user' require to install any package using dpkg (or apt-get) , we require to run the vm in different mode (which is maintence mode where 'app' or base has write permission) rather then the one which its running for user mode.<BR><BR>Does above information provides all information as expected ?<BR><BR>Please reply in case you have more queries.<BR><BR>Regards,<BR>Arun Sharma<BR>Click2try<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><FONT face="Tahoma, Arial, Sans-Serif" size=2>
