The recommended method of updating a new 2010 install would be as follows.

Run "Repository Speed Test" from the menu and follow the instructions. Then use synaptic/ click the "reload" button/ Mark All Updates, and click "Apply". That is the way to update your install. If you are doing something different than that, you might be on your own.

I know it can be done from the command line in Konsole but that is not the recommended method.

If you simply must use the CLI, then you should be aware that PCLinuxOS uses apt4rpm, rather than plain apt. Some of those apt-get commands you will find on the net will not work well. Search this forum first.

The correct commands to update:

Code: [Select]

apt-get updateThis will refresh your package lists.

Code: [Select]

apt-get dist-upgradeThis will upgrade your installed applications.
