Installation issues / Re: Upgrading from 10.04 to 16.04
September 11, 2017, 09:05:18 PM
tried with nvidia 6800. same issue.
#3
yes, i did edit nvidia-install.sh and did not work. Did also rename it, and created a nvidia-install.sh with "exit 0". did not work either.

purchased a nvidia 6800 and as soon i receive it will try again.
#4
well, i could not find the way to install it..... :-[

it simply does not start avwizard. it loops from mouse pointer to black screen with 0 on the toop left corner.

tried 304, 340, nothing works.
#5
yes, i did it also, trying 304 and 340. did not work.

is nvidia-install.sh really necessary if a nvidia driver is already installed and working (lightdm)?

#6
Thank you ardirtbiker. Where do i find 302? seached and did not find.



#7
i did some minutes ago.

removed the nvidia drives (NVIDIA NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-340.102.run --uninstall), removed all nvidia drives (304, 375, etc), downloaded from pastebin, used and the result was the same, with 340. Changed to 304, and the result was the same.

From ssh i could see AVWizard installing 340. did not work. Could see installing 304. Did not work either.

Any driver your recomend?

This hardware configuration worked with 10.04 (well, i build it and used the HD with lmce 10.04).

TIA

endless.... looping ;)

no i don't have another graphic card.

I can enter rescue mode at boot and remove the nvidia drivers. any hint which driver shall i use for it?

blacklisted nouveau, removed nvidia*, installed drivers from NVIDIA NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-340.102.run, same thing... 0, pointer, 0, pointer in a loop.

it seams that nvidia-install.sh is installing the removed drivers again.

did not give a try, but can i disable nvidia-install.sh so the NVIDIA NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-340.102 stays? is it supported by lmce?

TIA

another try. installed 14.04 fresh, not updates, mce-install.sh, went to the end, reboot and 0, mouse pointer, 0,  mouse pointer, endless

nvidia 210 is my card....
#10
ok, installed 14.04 64 bits, apt-get update, apt-get upgrade, ubunt-drivers autoinstall, mce-install.sh, and at the end, rebooted. now i get mouse pointer, black screen with 0, mouse pointer, black screen with 0, and so on, endless.....

any clue?

Thanks,

The preferred way of installing LinuxMCE these days is:

* Install regular (*)Ubuntu 1404 Desktop (32 or 64)
* Run netinstall.

Enjoy :-)

Thank you Posde. I thought only 32 bit would work. Ok, 64 bits prefered :)

Netinstall = wget mce-install.sh ?

Thanks!

Thanks and based on the answer, i downloded the dvd image of 14.04.

It boots, splash screen, i choose hybrid install, and runs but does nothing.

Any hint for 14.04?

Installation issues / Upgrading from 10.04 to 16.04
July 28, 2017, 09:04:58 PM
Hi all,

after a long time, i'm back and would like to upgrade from 10.04 to 16.04.

Is there a tool where i can preserve the configurations, like phone lines, extensions, etc, or do i need to install from scratch and configure all again?

With best regards,

Paulo

Hyia,
during the last apt-get upgrade, i got the following:

The following packages have been kept back:
  gvfs gvfs-backends linux-generic linux-headers-generic linux-image-generic pluto-dcerouter
The following packages will be upgraded:
  libx11-6 libx11-data libx11-dev libxcb-render0 libxcb-shape0 libxcb-shm0 libxcb-xv0 libxcb1 libxcb1-dev libxext-dev
  libxext6 libxi6 libxrender1 libxt-dev libxt6 libxtst6 libxxf86vm1

Shouldn't pluto-dceroute be upgraded?

Best regards,

Hya,
yesterday, i did an update and upgrade, and since then, dhcp is having problems.
The dhcp server fails on start.
Was anything changed?
Best regards.

Found the problem:
error in syslog:
dhcpd: Open a socket for LPF: Permission denied
The bug was recognized and fixed for 12.04
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+...107686> but
not for 10.04. It may have to do with the server change; with 10.04 the
dhcp server is 'dhcp3-server', and with 12.04 it is 'isc-dhcp-server'.
Anyway, to fix edit:

/etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.dhcpd3

#FROM:
network inet raw,
network packet packet,

#TO:
network inet raw,
network packet packet,
network packet raw,

Then reload apparmor:
sudo service apparmor reload

And then the dhcp server will now start:
sudo service dhcp3-server start
