Re: upgrading problems

2008-05-06 Thread Andy Goh
Hello Victor,
 Reluctantly, yesterday I went ahead and updated Ubuntu 7.10 to Ubuntu 
 8.04.
 After 45 minutes of downloading and 50 minutes of installing, I had 
 problem with gcc-3.3-doc (which I finally deleted it after searching 
 for an hour for solutions).
Perhaps some error messages?
 Ubuntu 8.04 brought with it Firefox3, which is a welcomed Browser, but 
 lost all my add-ons.
This is not the case for me - Firefox 3.0b5 merely informed me about a 
few of my addons will not work with FF3.
 The most unfortunate incident was the new VirtualBox-1.6.0-OSE ( which 
 is not an Innotek property anymore and it belongs to SUN 
 Misrosystems). After 7 hours of figuring out how to install the 
 tar.bz2 and vboxusers rejections, when I finally saw the OS 
 working came the most disappointing issue no USB entry, plus I can't 
 connect to my network. VB1.5 was working like magic before.
I did some searching on the web, found [1], not sure if you have seen it 
tho.

[1] deals with USB and vboxusers issues, seems like what you need.

I haven't tried anything personally, hope it works for you.

Don't hesitate to ask for more help, if you need them.

Ubuntu Open Week

2008-04-28 Thread Andy Goh
Good day,

Just to drop the words that they are running Ubuntu Open Week this week, 
just join #ubuntu-classroom and follow the sessions starting on 1500 UTC 
(which is practically impossible for us in AU to follow, unless you're 
up late)

You can also get the logs here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOpenWeek
