| ApfH | Hello | 08:00 |

| pjotter | Hi people. I just tried installing Xubuntu 16.04 from a live CD and the installer seems stuck on a lot of "WARNING:root:can't add [packetname]..." Does anyone know what is going wrong here? | 12:11 |
| xubuntu90w | One question, I'm using Xubuntu (whatever version) trough VirtualBox and I always have the same problem: when I want to add Guess additions to put 1024x768 pix, appears an ISO to mount and there are some .exe's when I open, the result is an error that cannot open that file | 14:06 |
| xubuntu90w | I tried to input some code I saw on forums, but always with the same results | 14:07 |
| flocculant | let the cd run - in the filemanager which should open up, right click >open terminal here and then run the linux .run file - you will want sudo | 14:09 |
| flocculant | you can tab complete to make sure you get the filename correct | 14:10 |
| xubuntu90w | thanks for response. I opened the terminal and run the .run file, but appears another window with this message: This program must be run with administrator privileges. Aborting | 14:14 |
| xubuntu90w | thanks for response. I opened the terminal and run the .run file, but appears another window with this message: This program must be run with administrator privileges. Aborting | 14:18 |
| flocculant | as I said - you will want sudo | 14:22 |
| xubuntu90w | I don't know the code to be sudo :( | 14:24 |
| flocculant | it is sudo | 14:25 |
| Pici | xubuntu90w: its your password | 14:25 |
| flocculant | just sudo nameoffile.run | 14:25 |
| xubuntu90w | Appears "Command not found" | 14:31 |
| xubuntu90w | I put in my case: sudo VBoxLinuxAdditions.run | 14:31 |
| flocculant | xubuntu90w: please check you are in the correct folder to run it - the command looks right | 14:33 |
| flocculant | hence mention tab complete - it won't tab complete if you're not in the right place in the terminal | 14:34 |
| xubuntu90w | I'm in the disk directory mounted "VBOXADDITIONS v5.0.24_108355" | 14:36 |
| akxwi-dave | xubuntu90w, are in the terminal or in thunar file manager? | 14:37 |
| xubuntu90w | I'm on that directory that appeared once I click on guest additions and the disk mounted | 14:38 |
| akxwi-dave | ok | 14:38 |
| flocculant | you need to be in a terminal to run the command | 14:38 |
| flocculant | right click in there and 'open terminal here' | 14:38 |
| akxwi-dave | right click on any plain area of the file manager and select run treminal here | 14:38 |
| akxwi-dave | open terminal here that is | 14:39 |
| xubuntu90w | yeah, that was I did | 14:39 |
| akxwi-dave | in the terminal type in | 14:40 |
| akxwi-dave | sudo VBoxLinuxAdditions.run | 14:40 |
| xubuntu90w | and then I put my passwrd | 14:40 |
| akxwi-dave | yes | 14:40 |
| xubuntu90w | and finally appears the message I told: Command not found | 14:40 |
| xubuntu90w | (in spanish, orden no encontrada) | 14:40 |
| Unit193 | akxwi-dave: Forgot ./ | 14:41 |
| akxwi-dave | opppp try sudo ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run | 14:41 |
| xubuntu90w | ok | 14:41 |
| akxwi-dave | Unit193, doh | 14:42 |
| flocculant | hah | 14:42 |
| xubuntu90w | hahaha yeah! This works | 14:42 |
| flocculant | same forgetting here too ... | 14:42 |
| flocculant | sorry xubuntu90w :) | 14:42 |
| xubuntu90w | haha no prob friend | 14:43 |
| xubuntu90w | :D | 14:43 |
| akxwi-dave | hides face in shame... | 14:50 |
| flocculant | nah - just change your nick or pretend I stole yours :) | 14:51 |
| akxwi-dave | that will do me | 14:52 |
| ranu | flocculant, not sure if you remember but I was having a problem with VLC and the screen lock, I found the solution: http://askubuntu.com/questions/668834/vlc-player-is-not-displaying-video-but-audio-works | 16:03 |
| flocculant | ranu: right the first time - no I don't remember :) | 16:07 |
| ranu | flocculant, no problem though :) | 16:08 |
| flocculant | looks a bit like the xubuntu clutter in parole (and other apps) issue | 16:08 |
| flocculant | hence us changing default from clutter there | 16:09 |
| flocculant | anyway - thanks for coming back and updating people :D | 16:09 |
| ranu | I still think that it has something to do with the problem in intel drivers (xorg), it never happened in older xubuntu versions (at least with me). | 16:10 |
| flocculant | ranu: possibly - an intel update recently fixed something else - rather unexpectedly | 16:11 |

| craigbass76 | I've got a remote guy running a 14.04 livecd. Had him run apt-get install openssh-server, and after a sudo -i ran passwd xubuntu. I still can't ssh in. | 20:26 |
| genii | Should just be: passwd ..as the default user which is named xubuntu. Then ssh in as user xubuntu and whatever password got set for that. After that use sudo to do admin things | 20:40 |
| genii | What you've done there is put a password on the root user, which normally is not allowed to ssh in | 20:41 |
| genii | ( or even have a valid login) | 20:41 |
| craigbass76 | genii, well, as xubuntu I first just tried passwd. After we did the sudo -i, then passwd xubuntu (thought I was setting xubuntu's pass with that), then just passwd (thought I was setting root's with that) | 20:44 |
| craigbass76 | We also got, both times, updated successfully, and I can't log in as either xubuntu or root | 20:46 |
| genii | craigbass76: If you're trying from some location on the other side of their internet, make sure the modem/router is forwarding port 22 to that machines LAN IP. If from inside LAN, make sure sshd is actually running by having him ssh localhost or his current IP | 21:01 |
| craigbass76 | genii, He actually gets denied when running it. It's asking for a pass, so I'm assuming ssh is running. S'pose that's accurate? | 21:05 |
| Elec_A | Hi, I want to install KDE on my xubuntu, Is it ok if I add ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports repository ? | 21:06 |
| genii | Elec_A: Just sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop ...after that you can start adding PPAs | 21:07 |
| Elec_A | genii: so should I add that PPA for Plasma 5.7 ? or not ? | 21:08 |
| knome | tbh, you should ask #kubuntu on kde specific issues | 21:08 |
| Elec_A | knome: but my OS is Xubuntu | 21:08 |
| knome | Elec_A, believe me, they know much more about installing plasma this and that than anybody here. and the core system is still ubuntu on both, so it doesn't really matter. | 21:09 |
| Elec_A | knome: nice, I just wanted to make sure the above PPA does not conflict with other packages. | 21:10 |
| Elec_A | I mean in Xubuntu | 21:10 |
| knome | xubuntu and kubuntu are very different; anything related to plasma will not conflict anything in xubuntu | 21:11 |
| genii | The main difference is it will replace the login with sddm, or if 14.04 then lightdm-kde-greeter | 21:12 |
