I tried to update the already installed packages using update manager. Â
But it is giving me an error likes this:Â
Failed in buffer_read(fd): files list for package `libsvga1': Input/output errorÂ
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)Â
Also this is preventing me from installing other packages>too.Â
Why not you try the pseudo apt get update in the command line?
This is a very useful thing and you must use it frequently to avoid such errors. We use it because sometimes disk that you are using might be already full. There is also a chance that the hard disk has some errors so better check the log file of the hard disk.
Apart from these you can also use the apt-get for the update of all the important packages related to your system using less time and less resources. It will automatically update them. It has a list of sources from which it downloads.
If you still can't get the error sorted out, go to this forums and follow the steps. There is a complete guide from a user to address this type of issue. I can't write it in detail here so I just refer you to that link.
