Ubuntu Installation :: Upgrade Virtualbox From 3.0.12 To 3.1.4

Mar 25, 2010

I'm currently using the PUEL version of Virtualbox 3.0.12 and whenever I open it, it prompts me to update - see screengrab.

Clicking that link and choosing to open it via the package installer (see screengrab) results in the error screen below - another screengrab.

I then realised the deb file was named Jaunty, so went to the Vbox website to download the Karmic file.

Running that via package installer produces the same error - Error: Conflicts with the installed package 'virtualbox-3.0'

Do I need to remove the old version first? If so, how do I do that (given that this is the PUEL version not the open-source version) and will my existing virtual machines (I've got WinXP and ChromeOS) be safe and still work afterwards?

My reason for wanting to upgrade is to virtually try Ubuntu 10.4 which I just cannot get to run or install in Vbox (either from a CD or from the iso image)

Ubuntu Installation :: No Audio In VirtualBox After Upgrade To 11.04?

May 5, 2011

I just upgraded to 11.04, and apart from an initial freakout because I didn't realize why all my settings were borked*, I haven't had any difficulties... until today. I ran my virtual WinXP machine (VirtualBox) to watch some streaming Netflix, and the sound didn't work. Sound still works under Ubuntu just fine. No idea why it didn't survive in my virtual machine.

I noticed when I started that it said there was an upgrade for the VirtualBox software, so I did that, but that didn't fix it either. I'm using PusleAudio for the Host Driver and ICH AC97 for the audio controller on my virtual XP machine. These worked before the upgrade, now... not so much. I tried switching the driver to ALSA and the controller to SoundBlaster 16 (and other different available combos, etc), to no avail.

* It turns out that crap pile, Unity, did away with all my nice custom panel layouts and configs and replaced them with something ugly, unwanted, and non-intuitive. I'm using "Ubuntu Classic" now because Unity is horrible.

Since my distribution upgrade to 10.04 my VirtualBox guest of XP SP3 will not boot, it bluescreens and reboots. I can boot the guest in last known good config and in safe mode but I have no CDROM.

Ubuntu Installation :: VirtualBox Does Not See Attached Drives After Upgrade

May 3, 2011

Upgraded. VBox (Win7 - 64bit) runs well, but does not see attached drives. Removed the drives, and attempting to re-attach, usually results in an immediate Windows 7 crash. Even when attached (lucky) - the drives do not re-attach after a VBox reboot. Is there some easy way to downgrade to 10.10??

Ubuntu Installation :: After Upgrade From 10.10 To 11.04 On VirtualBox - Can't Get To Desktop Or Terminal

May 12, 2011

When I fired up 10.10 this morning on VirtualBox as usual (running on Windows 7 machine), I got prompted to upgrade to Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal, so I followed the prompts and after about 4 hours or more, my vm restarted and says 11.04 is running, however, I never get to the Ubuntu desktop. Im stuck at some startup screen that shows the Ubuntu logo and I definitely cant see the System, Peferences, etc. menus at the top left.

One thing I came across is that 11.04 is designed for use with touch screen devices and 3D, and thus 3D acceleration is required in the VirtualBox settings, but even after checking that option and restarting I still couldnt get to the desktop.

Also, during the install I came to a step where I was prompted to discard files no longer needed at which point I agreed to have them deleted (41MB or so of files). Maybe I should have just kept everything.

Did I miss a step or is it not good practice to upgrade on a vm in this manner, meaning it's better to always download the .iso and do a fresh install?

Ubuntu Installation :: Unable To Update The Virtualbox

Jul 19, 2010

I have virtualbox installed under ubuntu 8.04 x64. The kernel got updated and since then I have to reboot the computer and choose previous kernel to use virtualbox. The reason is that I can't get a hold of the virtualbox module for 2.6.24-28 generic. When the kernel has been updated in the past I would just go into synaptic and select it, but this time it doesn't show and I've waited a while now... Tried searching for the package to no avail.

Ubuntu Installation :: VirtualBox Unable To Locate.iso File On Windows UDF Volume?

Feb 11, 2010

I'm uncertain if this is the correct forum to ask this question. Please redirect me to the correct forum if necessary. I am attempting to install MS Windows 7 as a guest in VirtualBox inside Ubuntu Karmic Koala 9.10. on a ZaReason Strata 3660 with 4GB of RAM and adequate memory. The machine is correctly partitioned for this event. I am using the Ubuntu Walk Through as a guide: [URl].. All was going fine until VirtualBox asked for the .iso image from the MS cd 'UDF Volume'. There appears to be no .iso file in the UDF Volume.

Ubuntu Installation :: Unable To Upgrade To 10.04

May 11, 2010

I'm currently trying to upgrade to 10.04, but I'm experiencing a problem. Currently I am encountering the following error message when trying to upgrade: "An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade: The package 'ubuntu-desktop' is marked for removal but it is in the removal blacklist."

The message directed me to /var/log/dist-upgrade. I looked at the apt.log file and I discovered the following at the end of the file:

Ubuntu Installation :: Unable To Upgrade From 8.04 To 10.04

May 17, 2010

I downloaded Ubuntu 10.04 Alternate CD and tried to upgrade 8.04 to 10.04. When I run upgrade (with the option "Include latest updates from the Internet?" set to "No" ) in the "Setting new software channels" it gives this error (ScreenShot attached):

Code:

An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade:
E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

This can be caused by:

* Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu
* Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu

I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 (upgraded from 9.10) and I can't find a way to upgrade to the new 10.04.1 version.

Here are my current settings:

Ubuntu Installation :: Unable To Upgrade From 10.04 To 10.10

Apr 28, 2011

when I upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10 I lost the ability to enable effects, lost the ability to use compiz and my screen got messed up and my video card driver wasn't working forcing me to re-install it several times. Even now my system doesn't totally work how it used to in 10.04.I want to avoid that in this upgrade. I downloaded the live cd since the wire upgrade took a bunch of hours. But my concern is the graphics, I want to be able to use effects since Unity uses effects, I have unity 2d installed but it doesn't work. So somehow enabling effects is a must.

what steps do I take to make the upgrade process as smooth as possible, I've already done my app updates so my system is current, I'll disable 3rd party ppa's like before but what else? Do I have to disable my video card driver so the live cd video card driver can be installed? How do I keep my setting as is but allow for all the 11.04 goodness to be installed?Or is erasing my current Ubuntu partition and reinstalling 11.04 fresh the best option?

Ubuntu Installation :: Unable To Email With 10.04 Upgrade?

May 8, 2010

I just upgraded to 10.04 from 9.10. Everything seemed to go well and it looks like everything transfered over fine except my email stuff. I was using Evolution with 9.10, but it looks like none of that is on 10.04. Not too worried about the program itself, but I would like to have kept my contacts info and a few of the emails from the last couple of days.

Ubuntu Installation :: Unable To Get Grub After Upgrade

Jan 1, 2011

I started off on 9.10 and upgraded to 10.4 without any problems. However during the upgrade to 10.10 got asked about grub (see attachment 1& 2) and I think I should have ticked the other boxs but I didn't. I also got an error (see3) The 4th one I think is a different issue.On the restart it would only get to the purple screen before the login field appears. I presume I need to do something to the grub but have no idea what.My system is 64bit and a raid 1. The attachment 5 shows the partition arrangement I can boot into the the PC with a live (32bit 10.10) cd.

Ubuntu Installation :: Unable To Boot After Upgrade To 10.10?

Feb 28, 2011

I updated my pc today, all went well no errors during upgrade. But I am unable to boot. I get the splash screen with Ubuntu and 4 coloured dots, then it goes and i get a page of txt. *starting apparmor profiles skipping profile in /etc/apparmor.d/disable: usr.bin.firefox plymouthd: ply-keyboard.c:384: ply_keyboard_watch_for_input: Assertion `keyboard != ((void*)0)' failed. *Setting sensors limits rather than invoking int scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service ( utility, e.g service s20plymouth-splash start Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an upstart job. you may also use the start ( utility, eg. start s20plymouth-splash Start: uknown job S20plymouth splash

If i leave it the screen just goes black I can get to ttyl by using ctrl&alt&f7 and log in.but thats about it startx just tells me no screens found I expect because xorg isn't used. If i go into recovery mode, failsafe graphics won't load either. So i select netroot and the enter startx which will give me a root desktop. I tried reinstalling grub, but no change. Not sure where to go from here i suspect it is something to do with plymouth? but i am no expert even tho i've been a user for 4 years
