    Can't remember what I did - duh! but my Aspire One [running Linpus] has lost the History in "Manage Updates"

    i.e. Manage Updates will open correctly and reports my machine is up to date, but if I click on History I get
    "Internal Error: ...updates list cannot retrieved"

    so how can I rebuild the list?

    Thanks for any help, Guys

    I have this problem as well, I think its to do with Installing software have you installed anything thats not from a acer server? just before it stopped.
    To remove the software through a different way do this:
    open a terminal window by holding Alt+F2 and make sure you have a blank box and tick Run in Terminal
    type xfce-setting-show
    go to Desktop
    Behavior
    Tick Show desktop menu on right click
    then right click on the desktop
    Go down to the System tab
    Click Add/Remove Software
    And Remove anything necessary

    Sorry there isn't an easier way to do this :(
