Just few days ago i notice (apt-get install virtualbox -v) that version of virtualbox is 3.2. When the latest version is 4.3.6 ? Why is that ? [07:01] userbob2, there are at least 2 versions of virtualbox - the one in the repos which may / may not be the very latest and the one you download from oracle . [07:02] i understand it can't be very latest, but that version in repos is very very old... [07:03] i dont know few years probably ... [07:04] userbob2, stuff enters the repos at different times. for the very latest packages, run apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade and that will usually pull the most recent versions from the available repos [07:05] upgrade vs dist-upgrade not the same ? [07:05] i doing apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade [07:08] !dist-upgrade | userbob2 [07:08] userbob2: A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention. [07:09] i know that [07:09] but it is difference between upgrade and dist-upgrade ? [07:09] yes [07:10] see above [07:11] !dist-upgrade [07:11] A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention. [07:11] ok [07:11] !upgrade [07:11] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [07:11] !info virtualbox [07:11] thanks i look at that [07:11] virtualbox (source: virtualbox): x86 virtualization solution - base binaries.

[08:22] hi xubuntu466 [08:22] Hi. I'm having problems with installing Xubuntu on an old computer [08:23] whats going wrong pal [08:24] I have made a key with Xubuntu 13.10 with "linux live usb creator". [08:24] I boot it from the computer [08:24] yep [08:24] The screen says "automatic boot in 1,2,3,4,5 seconds" [08:25] and then a list appears, and it just stands like that [08:26] ok [08:26] press enter [08:26] the list has options ya? [08:26] no it's just a kind of log [08:27] no options. nothing hapenes when i press the keyboard [08:27] hm [08:27] any chance of a bit more info of what this list says [08:27] There is a lot. [08:28] hm [08:28] any chance u can provide a link or image [08:28] so i can see [08:28] anything off google or whatever [08:28] Yes. just a sec [08:31] http://i.imgur.com/ZSRmjbV.jpg [08:32] thanks [08:32] sec [08:32] :9 [08:32] *:) [08:32] ahh ok so thats when its booting [08:32] 2sec [08:32] whats the las thing it says [08:32] yes, after i have selected the flash drive as the boot device [08:32] yea [08:33] "...stepping: 04)" [08:35] looking now:D [08:56] Find out anything? :) Thank you for helping. [08:58] hey sorry im a bit stumped it just stop at step04? [08:59] yes [08:59] hmn# [08:59] can it be the cpu? [08:59] or the ram? [09:03] Well Stepping 04 is part of the description of the cpu. [09:03] I don't know if it's relevant to the problem. [09:03] You would have to know what's happening in that moment. [09:05] So. Any ideas of what I can do? Is there anything I can do in the BIOS to make it work? Or should i run another version of linux? [09:07] did you try booting with nomodeset? [09:07] what about that noacpi? i remember i had to use that once [09:07] Is this a P4/Celeron Socket 478? [09:07] One option at a time. [09:07] How do i boot with nomodeset? [09:07] if you mix options now, you won't know what works and what doesn't. [09:08] is this a live session or a full install? [09:08] full install [09:09] when the computer first boots, hold shift after the bios posts. [09:09] You should be able to get the grub menu. [09:09] You can add and edit options there. [09:09] yes. there now [09:10] yea [09:11] after you can type them [09:37] Now i disabled acpi, and it looks like it's working. There is a blank screen with: "Xubuntu 13.10" and blinking dots beneath. [09:38] The dots are just blinking, and nothing happens [09:39] NOW IT WORKS! [09:40] \o/ [09:40] Thank you for your help :) [10:00] hey [10:00] wait [10:00] i said maybe it was noacpi :P [10:00] ages back [10:00] :P [10:58] lo all [10:58] i'm trying to make a launcher that will autoexecute an ssh-login command in terminal [10:58] which flag do I use before the shh command?

[11:48] not to bother but good morning knome [13:38] hi all [13:39] I am using xubuntu 13,04, no more support so I have told it via software updater to upgrade me to 13.10 . Is there a way to see if it is working? [13:42] karl_, see if WHAT is working? [13:43] if the upgrade is working. The 13.04 software updater said it was no longer supported. Asked me if I wanted to upgrade, I clicked upgrade, then it just went off and I do not know if it is working now [13:44] karl_, open a terminal and run lsb_release -a that'll tell you the current version [13:45] raring 13.04 [13:46] !upgrade|karl_, [13:46] karl_,: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [13:52] upgrade does not seem to be supported anymore [13:53] but xubuntu says it is, oh well [13:54] karl_, come to the #ubuntu channel and ask how to upgrade an end of life release. I've never done and don't know how ... [13:55] karl_, or you could download the ISO and clean install - I'd recommend 12.04 as it's LTS and the new LTS drops in April. [13:59] for reference sudo do-release-upgrade did the trick [13:59] karl_, I knew there was a trick to somewhere ... [15:32] Hi guys. It appears HDMI output is broken in 13.10, has anyone found a workaround? (laptop) [15:43] sorry. session timed out. I was asking if anyone has a workaround or fix for the broken HDMI output in 13.10? Thank you. [15:57] DGR: how is it broken? [15:58] it works for me [16:09] When an HDMI cable is plugged in and I hit Fn+F7 I don't get the dialog to share my desktop anymore [16:09] The kernel is seeing the HDMI device as always disconnected. [16:10] And there is a LP bug filed for it but wondering if anyone solved this yet. Looks like a kernel regression.

Installation is taking way longer than Debian or Ubuntu/kuduntu. Is this normal? [17:44] define way longer, I bet you can make debian install for quite a while.. but should be about the same as u/k [18:14] there is tty output in classic xubuntu installer, so its possible to see where it get stucked [18:59] hi [18:59] The option "softwares & updates " is gone from setting manager [18:59] how do I fix it [19:01] peyam: re-install software-properties-gtk [19:02] thank brainwash :) [19:04] Hi there, got a slight issue. On the 'start menu' (button at top left) there is a section called 'Other'. It contains launchers that lead to programs I have deleted. How do I get rid of them? They do not show up in the settings manager! [19:04] And speaking of which, how do I generally delete launchers, not from the menu, but from the system generally, so they do not appear in things like the Open With application list when opening new file types [19:05] 1) check ~/.local/share/applications/ [19:05] 2) delete the application [19:05] How do I get to .local? [19:06] press ctrl + h [19:06] Nothing changed, except hidden files became hidden again [19:06] so there is no .local folder in your home folder? [19:06] Oh, in the home folder? [19:07] yes [19:07] Got it [19:07] ~ means home folder [19:07] So, delete all unwanted launchers? [19:07] the one you don't need anymore [19:07] I can only see some [19:07] All the ones I want to get rid of are not there [19:08] Also, have to go to dinner now, be back soon [19:08] ok [19:10] Dan_D: you might also want to check /usr/share/applications/ which contains the system wide launchers (also the place to look if you don't actually want to delete any application -> question 2) === pcwhite is now known as PaulW2U [19:36] Ah, back. Thanks brainwash! === GTB3NW_AWAY is now known as GTB3NW [20:35] Does Xubuntu 13.10 have Fake-PAE installer that doesn't require wizardry? [20:36] +a [20:36] Whats "Fake-PAE"? [20:37] Uh, it's a long story. If you know the answer, you can understand the question. [20:37] tl;dr It's support for processors that have quirky feature support flags [21:28] How do I open a .deb via command line, if even possible? [21:28] Dan_D: Open it to do what? [21:28] Make it install whatever program it is for [21:29] Rather thn using the softa [21:29] *software centre to open it [21:29] apt-get install gimp -- that would install gimp from commandline, e.g. [21:29] Ok [21:29] If I reinstall, will xubuntu detect my second monitor ? [21:29] *sudo [21:29] yeah, sudo apt-get... [21:30] So sudo apt-get install name-of-.deb [21:30] Dan_D: No. For installing a plain deb file, use sudo dpkg -i name.deb [21:30] AH, ok, thanks! [21:42] how can i uninstall plugin icetea? i have removed to ubuntu software center [21:43] apt-cache search iced [21:43] icedtea-plugin [21:44] sudo apt-get remove packagename [21:47] does not work [21:47] what is the error [21:48] misses icetea [21:50] Is there a way to tell xubuntu to detect a second monitor ? [21:50] web browser plugin to execute java applet [21:52] No takers ? [21:52] Can not find the package packagename [21:53] you use the actual package name, not "packagename" [21:53] cloudbender, if you aren't afraid of command line, check 'xrandr -q' [21:53] in this case it's icedtea-plugin [21:54] a ok sorry [21:54] So, is there a non-wizard way to install Xubuntu on a no-PAE laptop? [21:54] Well, yes-PAE no-PAE-flag laptop, anyway [21:55] can not find the packege icetea-plugin [21:55] xubuntu597, it's icedtea-plugin. [21:55] taza: I think 12.04 doesn't have pae by default [21:55] ops sorry [21:55] xubuntu597, i would suggest to reinstall ubuntu software center to handle your packages [21:56] 12.04 doesn't, but I'd like a newer version [21:56] sorry but someone speak italian? [21:56] taza, you can upgrade to 14.04 from 12.04 in april [21:56] knome: 14.04 will have native no-PAE?

(per entrare, scrivi « /join #ubuntu-it » senza virgolette) [21:57] Well, fake-PAE [21:57] taza, i would imagine there is something that allows you to run it [21:57] knome thanks [21:57] taza, especially since you have processor that actually supports PAE [21:58] taza, there was some really simple fix for that (which should work for most of those machines), basically just add the word "pae" in /proc/cpuinfo (iirc) [21:58] ... and I suppose man xandr might not hurt either :) [21:58] knome: So, do you actually know anything regarding 14.04 and fake-PAE? [21:58] taza, Unit193 can confirm/tell you more about it [21:58] >_> [21:58] cloudbender, or arandr, if you prefer a GUI [21:58] k tnx [21:58] sorry how can i get root mode? [21:58] Because you sound like you're just half-remembering things that may or may not be accurate. [21:58] taza, i don't have exact information (yet). === GTB3NW is now known as GTB3NW_AWAY [21:59] taza, talk with Unit193. :) [21:59] knome: It's a bit hacky, so I've stayed away from it (also only have PAE computers) nothing in the official repo. [21:59] Unit193, i'm aware of that, but since it might be the only option for those people... [21:59] So the tl;dr is "ignore everything knome has just said, and to be safe, put him on ignore". Got it. [22:00] taza, please dont do that [22:00] Anyway. [22:00] Unit193: I'm aware of the Fake-PAE trickery and I also know how hard it is to install an OS doing it. [22:00] taza, i would you to reconsider your attitude. thanks. [22:00] That's why I would like a non-wizard way of doing it [22:01] discussion of 14.04 is in #ubuntu+1 taza not here [22:01] Well I actually want to install 13.10 [22:02] i have romeved!.... i think [22:03] But since it's clear that you're more concerned with regular egos than with actually, y'know, helping people or discussing technology, I don't think I'll benefit from being here anyway. [22:11] well I apt-got ARandR but it still does not detect the second monitor [22:11] I'll try a fresh install [22:16] Hi, I using 14.04 daily build, my laptop touchpad is being detected as a pointer "evdev pointer catchall" InputClass, with the result that there is no multitouch.
