Re: [Touch-packages] [Bug 1668451] Re: update manager reports system of packages is broken
Many, many, many thanks!! It worked. I do apologize for checking the security box: I thought it was a security problem because I couldn't get the security updates installed, even though I followed all the instructions given to fix it, repeatedly, over the course of several days -- unfortunately the instructions didn't mention I needed to add "sudo" at the beginning. Anyway, it worked. I am a 65-year-old grandmother with no formal training at all in computers although I've managed to figure out how to use them over the last 17 years. but I love Ubuntu and really appreciate your very kind assistance.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1668451] Re: update manager reports system of packages is broken
Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find. ** Information type changed from Private Security to Public -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1668451 Title: update manager reports system of packages is broken Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I tried using the terminal for "apt-get" but none of the commands works -- I keep getting a message that I need "superadministrator" permissions ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: xorg 1:7.7+13ubuntu3 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-63.84-generic 4.4.44 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-63-generic i686 .tmp.unity_support_test.0: ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.5 Architecture: i386 CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' CompositorRunning: compiz CompositorUnredirectDriverBlacklist: '(nouveau|Intel).*Mesa 8.0' CompositorUnredirectFSW: true Date: Tue Feb 28 01:24:57 2017 DistUpgraded: 2016-04-26 00:52:22,634 DEBUG icon theme changed, re-reading DistroCodename: xenial DistroVariant: ubuntu ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes, if not too technical GraphicsCard: Intel Corporation 82G33/G31 Express Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:29c2] (rev 02) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company 82G33/G31 Express Integrated Graphics Controller [103c:2a6f] InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-12-18 (437 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 15.04 "Vivid Vervet" - Release i386 (20150422) MachineType: HP-Pavilion FK484AV-ABA m9400t ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-63-generic root=UUID=15cff27c-2c62-4856-8f12-9cff492af8d2 ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 SourcePackage: xorg UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to xenial on 2016-04-25 (308 days ago) dmi.bios.date: 10/23/2008 dmi.bios.vendor: American Megatrends Inc. dmi.bios.version: 5.32 dmi.board.name: Benicia dmi.board.vendor: PEGATRON CORPORATION dmi.board.version: 1.01 dmi.chassis.asset.tag: Asset-1234567890 dmi.chassis.type: 3 dmi.chassis.vendor: Hewlett-Packard dmi.chassis.version: Chassis Version dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnAmericanMegatrendsInc.:bvr5.32:bd10/23/2008:svnHP-Pavilion:pnFK484AV-ABAm9400t:pvr:rvnPEGATRONCORPORATION:rnBenicia:rvr1.01:cvnHewlett-Packard:ct3:cvrChassisVersion: dmi.product.name: FK484AV-ABA m9400t dmi.sys.vendor: HP-Pavilion version.compiz: compiz 1:0.9.12.2+16.04.20160823-0ubuntu1 version.libdrm2: libdrm2 2.4.70-1~ubuntu16.04.1 version.libgl1-mesa-dri: libgl1-mesa-dri 12.0.6-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 version.libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental: libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental N/A version.libgl1-mesa-glx: libgl1-mesa-glx 12.0.6-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 version.xserver-xorg-core: xserver-xorg-core 2:1.18.4-0ubuntu0.2 version.xserver-xorg-input-evdev: xserver-xorg-input-evdev 1:2.10.1-1ubuntu2 version.xserver-xorg-video-ati: xserver-xorg-video-ati 1:7.7.0-1 version.xserver-xorg-video-intel: xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.99.917+git20160325-1ubuntu1.2 version.xserver-xorg-video-nouveau: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau 1:1.0.12-1build2 xserver.bootTime: Mon Feb 27 22:55:34 2017 xserver.configfile: default xserver.devices: inputPower Button KEYBOARD, id 6 inputPower Button KEYBOARD, id 7 input USB OPTICAL MOUSE MOUSE, id 8 inputUSB USB Keykoard KEYBOARD, id 9 inputUSB USB Keykoard KEYBOARD, id 10 xserver.errors: xserver.logfile: /var/log/Xorg.0.log xserver.outputs: product id9894 vendor HWP xserver.version: 2:1.18.4-0ubuntu0.2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1668451/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
