Title: [RANT] So, I tried installing VMware/VirtualBox on Wheezy..... Post by: jarhed on November 02, 2013, 05:56:04 PM Failed.
This is why there's always room on my hardware for Windows. Rather than installing VMware and let me go on my merry way, Linux wants me to know about headers. http://www.hbhud.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/penguins_from_futurama.jpg Title: Re: [RANT] So, I tried installing VMware/VirtualBox on Wheezy.....

Post by: jarhed on November 02, 2013, 07:34:25 PM Seems I didn't update my /etc/apt/sources.list.

Post by: Wipeout2097 on November 03, 2013, 03:48:55 AM I take it you dislike typing sudo while not in root/safety off mode? ??? Yes. I dislike to type sudo, I dislike to have the fucking root password prompt thrown at me when I need to do something worthwhile, I hate that programs show prompts whining about how insecure it is to run under root, I hate people bitching that it's bad practice to run as root when I didn't ask for fucking advice.My machines always run at super-user privileges with auto-login, no UAC, no prompt garbage. If a distro/OS doesn't allow it, I ditch the distro. |
