Thread: working permanently offline


i use laptop @ home, don't have internet access (don't ask, long story).

question two-fold;

** how prevent various pieces of software trying access net updates etc. presume hang, lock up, , cause trouble.

** can recommend working practice installing updates and/or new software, either usb or cdrom/dvd?

have (legitimate!) access assorted computer facilities @ office.

using 11.04

bugbear

in response first question, update manager won't hang if have no internet connection-- it'll check, see there's no connection, , stop.
