Xubuntu install error

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 0 down vote favorite Whenever I try to install almost anything onto my Xubuntu OS, such as VirtualBox, I always get an error that looks something like this. Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these. The following packages have unmet dependencies: vbam-wx : Depends: libsfml-network2 (>= 2.1) but it is not installable Depends: libsfml-system2 (>= 2.1) but it is not installable Depends: libwxbase3.0-0 (>= 3.0.2) but it is not installable Depends: libwxgtk3.0-0 (>= 3.0.2) but it is not installable Can someone tell me what any of this means and how to fix it? apt package-management xubuntu dpkg dependencies share | improve this question edited Feb 23 at 19:00 grooveplex 2,136 1 13 32 asked Feb 23 at 18:35 dray 1 You might want to run 'apt-get -f install...

Long shutdown delay on 16.04 (related to WiFi usage?)

Never anything in between. Having observed this phenomenon for almost half a year now, the only thing I am sure of is this: the long shutdowns happen exclusively if - since booting up - the WiFi has at some point been enabled.

During such long shutdowns, I immediately get [ OK ] Started Show Plymouth Power Off Screen [ OK ] Stopped Thermal Deamon Service Then it stalls for one or two minutes, then the rest of the shutdown procedure happens in less than a second, st...
