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? [14:06] 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 [14:07] I tried to input some code I saw on forums, but always with the same results [14:09] 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 [14:10] you can tab complete to make sure you get the filename correct [14:14] 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] 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 [14:22] as I said - you will want sudo [14:24] I don't know the code to be sudo :( [14:25] it is sudo [14:25] xubuntu90w: its your password [14:25] just sudo nameoffile.run [14:31] Appears "Command not found" [14:31] I put in my case: sudo VBoxLinuxAdditions.run [14:33] xubuntu90w: please check you are in the correct folder to run it - the command looks right [14:34] hence mention tab complete - it won't tab complete if you're not in the right place in the terminal [14:36] I'm in the disk directory mounted "VBOXADDITIONS v5.0.24_108355" [14:37] xubuntu90w, are in the terminal or in thunar file manager? [14:38] I'm on that directory that appeared once I click on guest additions and the disk mounted [14:38] ok [14:38] you need to be in a terminal to run the command [14:38] right click in there and 'open terminal here' [14:38] right click on any plain area of the file manager and select run treminal here [14:39] open terminal here that is [14:39] yeah, that was I did [14:40] in the terminal type in [14:40] sudo VBoxLinuxAdditions.run [14:40] and then I put my passwrd [14:40] yes [14:40] and finally appears the message I told: Command not found [14:40] (in spanish, orden no encontrada) [14:41] akxwi-dave: Forgot ./ [14:41] opppp try sudo ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run [14:41] ok [14:42] Unit193, doh [14:42] hah [14:42] hahaha yeah! This works [14:42] same forgetting here too ... [14:42] sorry xubuntu90w :) [14:43] haha no prob friend [14:43] :D [14:50] hides face in shame... [14:51] nah - just change your nick or pretend I stole yours :) [14:52] that will do me [16:03] 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 [16:07] ranu: right the first time - no I don't remember :) [16:08] flocculant, no problem though :) [16:08] looks a bit like the xubuntu clutter in parole (and other apps) issue [16:09] hence us changing default from clutter there [16:09] anyway - thanks for coming back and updating people :D [16:10] 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). [16:11] ranu: possibly - an intel update recently fixed something else - rather unexpectedly === PaulW2U_ is now known as PaulW2U [20:26] 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. [20:40] 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 [20:41] What you've done there is put a password on the root user, which normally is not allowed to ssh in [20:41] ( or even have a valid login) [20:44] 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) [20:46] We also got, both times, updated successfully, and I can't log in as either xubuntu or root [21:01] 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 [21:05] 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? [21:06] Hi, I want to install KDE on my xubuntu, Is it ok if I add ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports repository ? [21:07] Elec_A: Just sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop ...after that you can start adding PPAs [21:08] genii: so should I add that PPA for Plasma 5.7 ? or not ? [21:08] tbh, you should ask #kubuntu on kde specific issues [21:08] knome: but my OS is Xubuntu [21:09] 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. [21:10] knome: nice, I just wanted to make sure the above PPA does not conflict with other packages. [21:10] I mean in Xubuntu [21:11] xubuntu and kubuntu are very different; anything related to plasma will not conflict anything in xubuntu [21:12] The main difference is it will replace the login with sddm, or if 14.04 then lightdm-kde-greeter
