Will let us see the current version. Then there is a cript we can run to update it. | |||
sudo apt-get install git | |||
wget https://raw.github.com/Hexxeh/rpi-update/master/rpi-update -O /usr/bin/rpi-update && sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/rpi-update | |||
sudo rpi-update | |||

sudo apt-get purge sonic-pi wolfram python-games .... | sudo apt-get purge sonic-pi wolfram python-games .... | ||

sudo reboot | |||
