If I read correctly the title, it is the same procedure for debian AND ubuntu!

I think your question is about upgrading the current oscam asin the one already installed..

Two options;

1) Download a newer binary for your hardware/OS
2) Setup a build-environment, and checkout / compile your own latest release (see the oscam wiki:

Wiki build page currently seems to have a mysql problem, but this will be fixed soon.

please excuse my arrogance but I believe the problem is related to reading difficulties and absolute lack of Linux knowledge

Ubuntu and Debian are not so different ( when it comes for average user)
everybody has to start from somwhere - but never copy paste the code!!!!
you may copy paste your computer "death sentence" in that way
it is always a good idea to analyse what is written by others
besides the command list for Oscam install / update is very simple - and if to think at least little bit ( it would take about 20 min to use google) you will understand it is the same for update and install

P.S I do not understand why many people going for such a complex setups, when in most cases likes of dm800/ VU is really enough
(one of my friends running Oscam Server for the past 2 years on Router - to compare dm800 has faster CPU and more memory)
because if you copy /paste binary while using debian you can do the same on STB ( besides you will have less AU problems)

svn: E175013: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'http://oscam.to/svn/oscam/trunk'
svn: E175013: Access to '/svn/oscam/trunk' forbidden
what to do?

thanks for the answers
