Trying to install Ubuntu, getting read errors and GRUB issues, been trying a while

$

Hi, new to the forum.

I'm trying to install Ubuntu 16.04.1 onto an HP Pavilion G6 laptop. It's a 4 year old machine which recently had its HDD replaced, so I needed a new OS and thought Ubuntu would be a great idea since it's free and I have some experience with it (not a huge amount, but I'm really excited about learning more!).

Installation was successful, but I'm having read errors. I've tried various things, such as reinstalling in a couple of different ways, running Boot Repair on Grub2 (since about half the time I'm getting Grub errors), and manually partitioning (but I'm not sure if I had done it right as I am relatively new to Ubuntu, followed instructions best I could). I MD5SUM checked the integrity of the installation DVD, no problems there. Most recently, I performed the "wipe HDD and reinstall Ubuntu" option to start off clean. Still errors. Ran Boot Repair again, still errors.

Here's the paste: http://paste2.org/L1FtFBP9

Hoping it's not the hardware, but it's possible? From my limited understanding, it SEEMS fixable. Any help is appreciated.

[lubuntu] Lubuntu 14.04 to 16.04 LTS upgrade; lxde desktop/panel "hiding"

$
0
0
I'm attempting to upgrade Lubuntu 14.04 to 16.04. I am running Lubuntu as a virtualbox host with Windows 8.1 and Lubuntu guests. I successfully upgraded the Lubuntu 14.04 guest to 16.04. However, after attempting to upgrade the Lubuntu 14.04 host to 16.04, the desktop is now "hiding" behind the 16.04 default wallpaper along with two directory shortcuts I normally have on my lxde desktop. I did manage to get a sort-of menu to expose a Logout option. The reason I say "hiding" is because if I elect to Logout, the logout dialogue shows the proper desktop, my custom wallpaper, panel, icons, and autostarted programs.

I haven't been able to determine where to even start fixing this. (I have backups of the VMs, so could re-install if absolutely necessary, but the host is on a bootable raid 1 setup so is rather more involved to re-install.)

A couple of things I've tried:
- re-install lxde via apt-get (no errors, but no change)
- the Guest account behaves exactly the same way ("hides" the normal lxde desktop, panel, etc.)
- downloaded the 16.04.1 iso and made a bootable USB drive. It also boots into something with no panel, menu, etc.

TIA so much for any and all suggestions.

[SIZE=4]ello everyone,
Brand new to the forums but have been using ubuntu for over a year. I do like it, but the learning curve has been very steep.

So last night i accepted the 16.04 upgrade but forgot to plug in my laptop charger. The machine lost power and now will not boot up at all. Here are a few screens for your reference...


Any help is appreciated.

Dual boot problem

[SOLVED] Unable to install Google Chrome with Software Installer after 14.04 -> 16.04 Upgrade

$

I just upgraded from 14.04 to 16.04 (which ran smoothly and only had a message about having to manually re-install some apps), and started re-installing
my regularly used apps. I downloaded google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb from Google and when I tried running the installer. it opened up the
"Ubuntu Software" app and appeared with an "Install" button. I click on the button, install starts, then stops about three seconds later.
I now have an icon in the Launcher bar with a question mark and says "waiting to install", but clicking on it does nothing.
If I check the "Installed" tab in Ubuntu Software, under "Installed Add-ons" "google-chrome-stable" appears twice, with an Install button next to it. But, if I
click on the Install button, I'm asked if I want to remove the app, and when I click Remove, I get an error message saying "Sorry, this did not work" "Removal
of google-chrome-stable failed."

What am I missing?

[ubuntu] Unable to instal Pitivi using flatpak

After I tried to install Pitivi using flatpak over an older version installed via .deb file, the program didn't open. So I treid to uninstall both from flatpak and from .deb. Then flatpak kept saying there was no "Pitivi master" to uninstall, so I searched for files with "pitivi" on their names and deleted them all.
Now, when I try to install Pitivi, I get this error. Don't know what to do.

Code:

~$ curl https://git.gnome.org/browse/pitivi/plain/build/flatpak/pitivi-flatpak -Sso pitivi-flatpak && \

[ubuntu] "Could not calculate the upgrade" - upgrading Ubuntu 14.04 to 16.04

$

Ubuntu has been nagging me to upgrade to 16.04 (from 14.04) for some time now. After starting my computer today (HP Pavilion 1000 laptop) I was prompted yet again. I had backed up my files the day before so I chose to do it. The release notes window opened, I clicked the button to continue. I was then presented with a list of steps and a progress bar.
After a moment I saw a screen saying: "Third party sources disabled"
http://postimg.org/image/6nn4sgsj9/
It didn't seem to be anything serious, so I closed it and let the updater move on. Soon, I saw an error icon in the top-right panel. "An error occurred, please run Package Manager [etc]". This was worrying.
http://postimg.org/image/l9j2f1med/
Finally, this error message appeared, "Could not calculate the upgrade". After that, the upgrader reverted the changes and closed itself.
http://postimg.org/image/yyn1r53hh/
Running any of these 4 commands: apt-get, sudo apt-get, sudo apt-get install, sudo apt-get install did not say anything out of the ordinary. Opening Synaptic Package Manager did not do anything unusual. There was also nothing relevant to be found in /var/log/dpkg.log. So:
1) Is upgrading worth the fuss?
2) If so, what do I do?
I will be happy to run any suggested commands and post their output.

[ubuntu] "Cannot process volume group " after upgrading 14.04 to 16.04

$

After upgrading from 14.04 to 16.04 the boot process got stuck. Hitting CTRL + ALT + F2 revealed the message "A start job is running for Hold until boot process finishes up (Xmin Xs/no limit)".

I read that this is most likey caused by plymouth / video driver so I did the following:
In rescue mode I activated the network and typed in the shell:
"sudo apt-get remove plymouth xserver-xorg-video-intel" and rebooted.

Now before I even get to unlock my encypted disc I get the message:

lvmedad is not active yet, using direct activation during sysinit
Volume group "laptop-hp" not found
Cannot process volume group laptop-hp

Since I still have the old kernel version, choosing that I do get to unlock the encrypted disc and after a while of booting the screen turns black. CTRL + ALT + F2 askes me to login. But no grafical login.

Hi,

I'm running 16.04, I was getting errors in the Software Updater regarding the above. Playing around with Synaptic I eventually got the instruction to try & re-install. It looks like an issue with the removal of existing stuff. Anyone else seen this?

[SOLVED] Keep -or- Modify Config file? after upgrade to v16.04

$

0
Towards the End of upgrading from v14.04 to v16.04 we get the following message;

"Configuration file '/etc/ld.so.conf'
==> file on system created by you or a script.
==> file also in package provider by package maintainer
What would you like to do? Options are:
Y : install the pkg maintainers version
N : keep your current version
D : show the difference
Z : start a shell to examine the situation
The default action is to keep current version."

Don't understand the significance of Keeping or Modifying the file. Any suggestions ? ? ?

Thanks!

[SOLVED] How to Find New PPAs for v16.04

Attempting to activate in "Other Software", PPAs for VirtualBox; SDK-Team; PipeLight; KdenLive; Webupd8team; Opera Browser ...

And Software Updater shows: "Requires Installation of Untrusted Packages", and clicking OK and Updater closes.

Apparently I have invalid PPAs for version 16.04. Where can I find the newer PPAs so I can input them into Updater?
(note: did a search but couldn't find anything specific)

Thanks!

[UbuntuGnome] Adobe Reader & 15.04 & PDF Printing

$

How can I get Adobe Reader to print in Ubu 15.04. It opens and reads PDFs just fine. But when I request to print the document, my printer (HP Laserjet 4) experiences just one "blink" and does not print the document; no error msg is generated; print que indicates normal processing; CUPs has no problems. Normally the printer will make a number of blinks when document is received at printer. To restate: Adobe Reader 9.5.5 works just fine, except that it will not generate a printed document. Via Okular, PDFs print with no problem (just can't get portrait output from a landscape input - and thus the need for Adobe).

My guess is that there is some sort of limited file/library problem? Would there be a log indicating the problem, and if so, how would I get to it to make a print out and return here for help?

[gnome] Boot-Repair Output

Below is my Boot-repair output file. The program advised me to post to forum and email to boot-repair team. I dit both.
I am new to Linux. Just trying to install ubuntu gnome 14.04 to my PC. Succesfully installed Ubuntu gnome 16.04 from USB made by unetbootin from windows 10. Nothing worked very well and I decided to go to 14.04. Still on 16.04 I downloaded 14.04 ISO and unetbootin again. Made the USB into installer and tried to install. Got error of something like failed to install grub2 to /target. Followed a bunch of advice and methods to get it fixed. Nothing worked so far.

Thank you in advance.

[ubuntu_mate] Installed MATE on HDD, but can't boot from HDD

$

First, I made a USB boot drive, then I changed my boot order and booted from it under TRY MATE. Then I connected to the internet and activated the 16.04 Ubuntu MATE installer on the Desktop. I did a totally default installation, nothing out of the ordinary. To be clear, I selected erase drive and install Ubuntu MATE, so my HDD was formatted in the process.

The installation completed without any errors. Then I restarted my computer as was suggested to me in order to be able to save preferences and install programs. I installed a program, set up preferences, and then decided to make sure that my HDD was really a bootable device.

I shut down the computer, took out the USB, and turned on the computer. I changed my boot priority to put the HDD at 1st but when I left BIOS I was sent to a screen that told me to select a proper boot device and reboot or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key. In other words, it failed to boot.

Finally, I booted again from the USB stick - I was given the same options as before, TRY or INSTALL ubuntu MATE (or OEM install/disc check) and I picked TRY. In the desktop, I checked the hard drive and I saw all the Ubuntu MATE installation folders, as well as the program that I installed earlier - on my HDD.

What's going on here? The smooth default installer installed onto my HDD but I can't boot from it. Do I need to specify a boot file path in BIOS for the HDD?

endnotes: I am using 16.04 LTS with 64 bit architecture on an ASUS computer. I torrented the iso file from the MATE official website and the USB stick I used is brand new and is 3.0 compatible (and I used it in a 3.0 slot)

Hi,

as I have 15.04 installed, I would like to move to 16.04. As I've read already it's not possible to go directly there, but I need to go via 15.10. And it seems here is an issue, as that version is not supported and during dist-upgrade I'm receiving errors as well.

That is the final log for my sudo do-release-upgrade:

Code:

Error during update

A problem occurred during the update. This is usually some sort of
network problem, please check your network connection and retry.
