Re: caja messages look funny

I normally use alt-f2 and then enter 'gksu caja' as the command.

I am installing Mint 18 Mate and was having a problem with setting caja preferences to list view as supervisor. caja kept reverting to icon view. That is why I started from the terminal.

Should I be using gksudo caja?

Re: Need to upgrade mythtv

Follow up:

The FE/BE is now Mythbuntu 12.04 as I needed the pvr=?50 fix for the BE.

The 4 FE systems are going to LMDE Mint. I really like the suite of apps.

Thanks;

Need to upgrade mythtv

A fix for a problem with the pvr-?50 capture cards has been released by mythtv.org around 30 Nov 2012. I need the fix and can't wait until the next UP. I am migrating from Ubuntu 10.04 and I would prefer a pure LMDE XFCE solution for 4 FEs and a FE/BE. How can I get the fix now? Otherwise, I will ru...

Re: Xorg Error

I would prefer to re-install instead of trying to fix this install. :shock: Is that easier than installing a single package (virtualbox-guest-dkms)? :) I had no idea what would be easy or possible. I already declared I did not know how to proceed from the recovery prompt. You know, no GUI, just a C...

Re: Xorg Error

I got no output! My system must be the problem and not a bug. I am trying out distros in VB because Ubuntu 10.04 is going EOL soon. I would prefer to re-install instead of trying to fix this install. What I want is a basic distro for a MythTV backend. I had trouble getting MythTV backend to work wit...

What is your Virtualbox version? Do you have virtualbox-guest-dkms package installed in your guest system? Also, this might give some hints: https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=49170 I see that. host: 4.1.22r80657 LMDE Mint in VM: 4.1.22r80657 LMDE XFCE: 4.1.18r78361 OK, there is ...

Xorg Error

I installed U5 on LMDE XFCE in a VirtualBox and now the VM stops with a messagebox that says:

Failed to start the X server...

I select YES to view /var/log/Xorg.0.log

which says (EE) module ABI major version (11) doesn't match the server's version (12)

Bug?
