Don't you get asked for the root password when you're launching disk-manager from the menu?
Of course it not asked me.

By the way i wanted upgrade salix from 13.0 to 13.1, i don`t know why i cant rewrite slapt-getrc(or what is the exact name. Its cant be open to rewrite.
I`m a chemist, please be patient.

This cannot be. I don't know what you're doing wrong, but you are doing something wrong. When launching disk manager from the menu you definitely get asked for the root user password.

Alternatively, open a terminal and type:

Code: Select all

gksu disk-manager

Sorry to say this, but you seem to be a very long way from being capable of upgrading from one version to the other. There are instructions in the wiki for doing that, but if you need to learn some very basic things first.

It doesn't work, because you need to become the root user for it to work, by using the su command. You can really save yourself a lot of time and frustration, if you read a bit before doing anything. The slackbook is an excellent way to start: http://www.slackbook.org/

This particular issue is described in chapter 8.

Code: Select all

su
(enter your root password)
slapt-get -i pynotify
(The package's name in 13.0 is actually pynotify)

You can also install the pynotify package using gslapt, it's the same anyway.
