Hello my name is Terrence Simpson.

2
00:00:02,435 --> 00:00:06,316
Welcome to this tutorial on how to install updates for Kubuntu.

3
00:00:06,428 --> 00:00:09,203
The KDE version of Ubuntu.

4
00:00:09,296 --> 00:00:12,333
In this tutorial I will be using the Adept Update Manager

5
00:00:12,455 --> 00:00:16,332
on a default install of Kubuntu to install some updates.

6
00:00:16,454 --> 00:00:19,406
The first thing you will need to do is log into the system.

7
00:00:19,546 --> 00:00:23,050
After you have done that we will continue with the tutorial.

8
00:00:23,564 --> 00:00:26,638
As you can see, there is an icon in the bottom right of the screen,

9
00:00:26,741 --> 00:00:29,983
which tells that there are seven updates currently available.

10
00:00:30,086 --> 00:00:36,019
The way you get to these updates is by clicking on that icon, to open the Adept Update Manager.

11
00:00:36,150 --> 00:00:39,449
What you will notice first is that you will asked for a password.

12
00:00:39,570 --> 00:00:42,177
You just type in your normal user password

13
00:00:43,578 --> 00:00:45,924
and then you click on the Ok button.

14
00:00:46,064 --> 00:00:49,614
After that Adept will continue to load up,

15
00:00:52,277 --> 00:00:55,968
Once Adept has loaded, you will see two buttons in the bottom right of the window.

16
00:00:56,068 --> 00:00:59,986
These are Fetch List of Updates and Skip Fetching List.

17
00:01:00,089 --> 00:01:04,835
The Fetch List of Updates button will go on-line and check for any updates that adept does not know about

18
00:01:04,938 --> 00:01:08,143
and Skip Fetching List will skip that step.

19
00:01:08,308 --> 00:01:13,338
So I am just going go and check for any new updates by clicking on that button.

20
00:01:13,438 --> 00:01:16,562
See, it checks all of the archives.

21
00:01:18,300 --> 00:01:21,990
Once it has done that, you will be presented with a list of all the updates

22
00:01:25,756 --> 00:01:30,250
and two buttons in the bottom right saying Apply Updates and Forget Changes and Quit.

23
00:01:30,325 --> 00:01:34,053
If you click on the Apply Updates button it will just apply all of those updates,

24
00:01:34,595 --> 00:01:37,697
but you can also decide which ones you want and which ones you do not

25
00:01:37,809 --> 00:01:40,687
by clicking on the blue arrow to the left of the package name.

26
00:01:40,787 --> 00:01:43,528
You also get a description of the packages

27
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:48,779
and also the size and the version it is going to be upgraded to

28
00:01:49,778 --> 00:01:54,647
You can also click on the Cancel Changes button, which will change that it is not updated

29
00:01:54,861 --> 00:01:59,776
as you can see in the requests column, the status has changed from upgrade to no change.

30
00:01:59,876 --> 00:02:05,046
I am just going to turn off a few of these updates

31
00:02:16,819 --> 00:02:20,024
If you are wondering why I am turning off a few of these updates,

32
00:02:20,117 --> 00:02:22,958
it is because I am going to show you an alternative way getting updates,

33
00:02:23,070 --> 00:02:26,041
besides the Adept Update Manger.

34
00:02:26,826 --> 00:02:32,872
So I am going to leave just one of the updates to be upgraded

35
00:02:35,021 --> 00:02:37,086
and cancel the rest.

36
00:02:37,478 --> 00:02:40,617
Once that is done, click on apply updates.

37
00:02:45,056 --> 00:02:49,195
I've downloaded the update and now it is going to start to install that for me.

38
00:02:49,316 --> 00:02:53,913
There is also a button there, which says Show Details, that will open up a window,

39
00:02:54,026 --> 00:02:57,660
which will show you what is going on in the background with the package.

40
00:02:59,155 --> 00:03:05,733
Still get the progress bar, if you click on the Hide Details button it will close that little window.

41
00:03:05,827 --> 00:03:07,780
If you do not want to watch it you do not have to.

42
00:03:08,163 --> 00:03:12,750
So that is whizzing along and soon that is installed.

43
00:03:13,255 --> 00:03:18,936
Okay, now that is done Adept will refresh itself

44
00:03:19,786 --> 00:03:25,663
and then it will say Update Complete and you can quit out of the update manager.

45
00:03:28,850 --> 00:03:33,306
Now the alternative way of getting the rest of the six updates,

46
00:03:33,391 --> 00:03:36,465
it is by going going to the K menu

47
00:03:36,565 --> 00:03:43,491
and going up to System, then clicking Adept Manager Manage Packages.

48
00:03:45,276 --> 00:03:47,864
That will load the Adept Package Manger up.

49
00:03:47,964 --> 00:03:52,891
Once again you will have to type in your password to open the up Adept Package Manager

50
00:04:02,225 --> 00:04:05,383
and then it will continue to load up.

51
00:04:07,271 --> 00:04:11,475
The interface to the Adept Package Manager is a bit different to the Update Manager,

52
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,895
so I will show you around that once it has loaded up.

53
00:04:21,258 --> 00:04:24,426
As you can see, you get a bigger list of packages.

54
00:04:24,566 --> 00:04:30,181
You can use the Adept Package Manager to install and uninstall package as well.

55
00:04:30,338 --> 00:04:35,171
Also refresh the list of packages in the same way as in the Update Manager

56
00:04:35,236 --> 00:04:38,021
by clicking on the Fetch Updates List button.

57
00:04:38,843 --> 00:04:43,599
Once that is done you notice the button that says Full Upgrade.

58
00:04:43,699 --> 00:04:46,664
That means that there are packages available to be upgraded,

59
00:04:46,767 --> 00:04:51,167
if you click on that it will mark all of the packages to be upgraded.

60
00:04:51,242 --> 00:04:55,129
You will see which packages it has marked up by clicking Preview Changes.

61
00:04:55,229 --> 00:04:59,521
In there again you can disable packages that you want to,

62
00:04:59,698 --> 00:05:02,922
I'm just going to click on Apply Changes to get it to apply all of them.

63
00:05:03,022 --> 00:05:07,921
It goes and downloads them for you and then it will start to install them as well.

64
00:05:09,434 --> 00:05:16,993
You also have the same button in this version of Adept as you did in the Update Manager version,

65
00:05:17,077 --> 00:05:23,497
the Show details button, which allows you to get a view of what is going on in the background.

66
00:05:24,730 --> 00:05:30,915
Just click on that, see it gives you lots of information about what is going on

67
00:05:31,037 --> 00:05:33,251
If you do not want to watch it again, you do not have to,

68
00:05:33,335 --> 00:05:37,381
but some people like to to know exactly what is going on in their system.

69
00:05:38,026 --> 00:05:39,521
and then that is done.

70
00:05:39,596 --> 00:05:43,679
You will notice as well that the icon in the bottom of the screen has disappeared,

71
00:05:43,763 --> 00:05:47,089
which tells you that all of the packages have been upgraded

72
00:05:47,189 --> 00:05:49,659
and the system is fully up to date.

73
00:05:51,425 --> 00:05:55,387
You can also choose where the packages come from,

74
00:05:55,658 --> 00:05:58,545
these are called repositories, they are usually online,

75
00:05:58,645 --> 00:06:00,955
but you can also add CDs to it,

76
00:06:01,217 --> 00:06:07,281
by going to the Adept menu and then clicking on manage repositories.

77
00:06:09,103 --> 00:06:10,673
See another window opens up here,

78
00:06:11,280 --> 00:06:14,429
it gives you a list of all of the repositories you have.

79
00:06:14,513 --> 00:06:16,270
I have got a CD-ROM in there,

80
00:06:16,372 --> 00:06:19,923
If you highlight it and then right-click it and click on enable,

81
00:06:20,023 --> 00:06:23,567
you will see that the grey text turned to black text.

82
00:06:23,679 --> 00:06:27,473
If you click on the reset button it will send it back to the default.

83
00:06:27,865 --> 00:06:32,145
You can also (once it is enabled) right-click it and click on disable

84
00:06:32,743 --> 00:06:34,957
Once you have made any changes and you want to save that

85
00:06:35,057 --> 00:06:39,423
you click on the Apply button and then you click on Close

86
00:06:39,535 --> 00:06:43,890
and then you would have to fetch the updates again to refresh the package list

87
00:06:44,151 --> 00:06:48,832
and that is about it for keeping your system up to date.

88
00:06:49,617 --> 00:06:52,710
So I am just going to quit out of Adept.

89
00:06:56,279 --> 00:07:00,820
Seeing as there are not more packages to upgraded, I am just going to log out.

90
00:07:02,072 --> 00:07:05,371
and that is the end of how to keep your system up to date.

91
00:07:05,502 --> 00:07:09,398
