Updating Ubuntu

After you can properly retrieve a static IP address, perform an update to the

latest packages.

Installing, and Configuring the DPPS Server Package" on page 11.

on the upper right corner of the screen.

CAUTION:

Do not update Ubuntu beyond 8.10. Upgrading to a later version causes

issues with the DPPS server.

3 Type the root account password and click OK.

NOTE:

The time taken to update Ubuntu varies depending on the system

performance and network speeds.

4 After the updates are complete, close the update manager.

You must remove two packages from the system as they interfere with the

processes needed by CUPS.

1 Type the following command in a terminal window:

sudo aptitude remove apparmor apparmor-utils

2 Type the root account password.
3 Press <Enter> when prompted.

Image" on page 12.

E-Mail functionality:
