I recently ran into an issue when i ran

i have this error-
Code:
Fetched 67.2 kB in 11s (6,040 B/s)                                             
Reading package lists... Done
W: There is no public key available for the following key IDs:

The resolution in case anyone runs into it is-
Code:
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 1397BC53640DB551

Found herehttp://askubuntu.com/questions/766883/th...ng-key-ids

After run update again and all should be well. Big Grin

  Virtual Box problems - no USB devices and broken package
Posted by: mandoran - 05-04-2016, 02:53 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (27)

Hello,


Trying to get a few Virtual Box machines set up to complete my new office set up, and have encountered problems I haven't run into before. In a Win XP box (only OS that runs my printer...) I cannot get my printer recognized, and for some reason this time I cannot get USB devices recognized by the guest OS.


I went into Synaptic to see if anything was missing, and I guess that the guest utilities are not installed - but I cannot install them because virtualbox-guest-x11 package is broken.


Since I know LL is supposed to curate the Virtual Box software, and I haven't had problems doing this earlier, I thought I should ask here rather than trying to look for a generic answer - can anyone help?

  Oops - ghostly visits to the LL forum?
Posted by: m654321 - 05-04-2016, 12:06 PM - Forum: Off Topic - No Replies

The other day I accidentally left my PC on while I went out for a long day out with the family.
I had inadvertently left it logged on to the LL forum for the whole day... :Smile

As a result, when I returned home and checked my PC, my status on the LL forum had changed
from a regular visitor to I come here a lot!

Ha!

  New Wi-fi network: how do I avoid having to type router security key each time
Posted by: m654321 - 05-04-2016, 12:01 PM - Forum: Network - Replies (5)

I have set-up a new Wi-fi network on the router I normally use. 

LL now asks me for the router's security key each time I want to go on the internet.
How do I avoid this, i.e. having to type in the key each time and instead embed the
security key in LL for auto-logon to the internet?

This problem has not occurred before, as this is the first time I've created a new network
after LL has already been installed. 

Many thanks for any help with this
Mike

  Safe removal of USB storage - suggestion for a future LL release
Posted by: m654321 - 05-04-2016, 11:49 AM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (2)

As in Windows OS, and at least one distro that I know of (Zorin 9), there is an option to mouse-click on for safe removal of USB storage devices.

For example in Zorin 9, at the file manager window, I right-click on the icon for the USB device concerned and a drop-down box will appear - one of the options in this box is safely remove hardware.  When I click on this option the device activity ceases (as you would expect), reflected  by it's blue indicator light going off.

In LL2.8 the options in the drop-down box mentioned above, include unmount and/or eject - either one separately , or unmount followed by eject,  don't appear to stop activity of my external USB drive, i.e. the USB device's blue light stays on. To make LL newbie-proof could we have this safely remove hardware option at some future date?  Obviously I don't want to remove a storage device until it is turned off as I may lose any data still being written...

In the meantime is there a terminal command to safely remove hardware?

Thanks
Mike

  Auto Update
Posted by: superbull - 05-04-2016, 03:22 AM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (1)

Hi, I am new to here.  Just wondering if there is any way to set up auto update?  Currently I need to manually select the "Install Updates" menu to update the software.

I've tried the following suggestion using cron-apt and anacron but still doesn't work.
https://mityer.khdlhfjijfrupr.tk/forums/insta...9/#msg1739

Any help is appreciated.
