apt-get failed install of libg15, all package management is failing
- by Stifle
I was trying to get my Logitech G510 keyboard's back-lights working so I went into the Synaptic Package Manager and marked LibG15, G15daemon, and all the other associated packages. Synaptic reported a failed install. Now all Package management is failing due to libg15 being "halfway installed."
Some commands I have tried to fix the problem follow. . .
root@bt:~# apt-get upgrade

I'm not too computer savvy. Any help would be much appreciated!!!
Note: I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 under Backtrack 5 R3.
