I never fixed the exact 13.3.0-37 kernal, but a newer kernal updateed and DPKG configured it to boot by default
/Solved

Update: As it turned out, DPKG needed something to be configured, but I couldn't do this from Synaptic, so this is what I'm assuming resulted in the required hard reboots. DPKG is now fixed and I am...

Okay, let me explain this "better" since I clearly confused people ( sorry :( )
what was originally installed is Ubuntu, but the visuals are XUbuntu, but there's also a topping of Ubuntu Server,...

Hello people! I am running a Ubuntu "Hybrid" (Mixed files/data between XUbuntu, Ubuntu, Ubuntu Server, and Kubuntu which I am working on getting rid of) and I think I accidentally screwed up the...

Due to an accident when live-machine testing BootCD's, I have found teh need to re-install Ubuntu on a more suitable data container. (18 gb of space to 233 gb of space. flash drive to hard drive) But...

As for the DPKG check:


$ dpkg -l python-markupsafe
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
| Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend

Err... Is this a bad thing?:

$ ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/info/python-markupsafe.list
ls: cannot access /var/lib/dpkg/info/python-markupsafe.list: No such file or directory

Here are the results.

sudo apt-get install --reinstall python-markupsafe python-gobject-2

This is NOT a problem with Virtualbox! Doesn't my signature SPECIFICALLY state "Don't make crap of this signatures, I would prefer VMware to Virtualbox any day."?!
The problem is with my main OS,...

Hello trusty 'Buntu forumers!

I'm having a problem with the boot loader, it says that it cannot find the harddrive and goes into grub rescue mode. I can boot into Hiren's BootCD though, and...

Thank you! I will see how this works in a few minutes, I'm currently busy with some stuff right now.

Hello trusty 'Buntu forumers!
Recently, I've been getting an error related to DPKG.
For the example I'm about to show you, I'm showing the results of trying to use apt-get install (apt-get upgrade...

Hey, sorry about this, but this problem was occuring BEFORE I installed the ubuntu 14.04 (This problem was occuring on 13.10) update, now that 14.04 is in place Adobe Flash seems to be working fine &...

Hey everyone. Whenever I try to load something that is powered by Adobe flash, I get this weird purple-pinkish screen effect on the frame where flash is supposed to load. I have two examples shown.

Thank you!!! Bless you, I can NOT tell you how thankful I am! :KS

Same with the other guy, My proccessor is terrible, GPU is critically impaired, and I would prefer VMware to VirtualBox any day.

My harddrive have 250 (windows detects 233.???) GB of space, Ubuntu has ABOUT 1.9 GB of space left for using. I REALLY don't think it's a good idea to use virtualbox to simulate XP. Plus, My...

Also, the reason I'm re-installing WinXP is because the session manager closes unexpectedly, resulting in a BSoD, obliterating the ability to boot.

A live CD... meaning, the installation disk?
Also, I'm using Gnome-Flashback because my graphics card has an impaired ability to use the regular Ubuntu Unity, so can I still get to the boot repair?

OK guys, I've come up with a MAJOR problem, I need to re-install WinXP but I'm not sure if re-installing it will somehow mess up the BootLoader and it's capability to launch WinXP, so if I install...

There we go, I fixed it! :")

hahaha, my signature fails XD

I guess that makes sense.

Err... Ok.
