Removing Virtual Box - mdiemer - 06-03-2018
I installed 4.0 yesterday, and the only problem is with boot time. Seems slower than 3.8. I tried removing Virtual Box as suggested in Release Notes, but I'm not sure I did it correctly. It didn't help in any case. I simply pasted the commands into Terminal and ran them. But they were multiple commands, and I've never been sure of what to do with "Code-Select." If this was wrong, how should I go about doing this?

[size=1em]Hello mdiemer[/size]
[size=1em]I try running only one command line at a time, especially when I'm learning or not familiar with the commands in a new task. It slows the process and allows any output from each line to be studied more clearly. [/size]
[size=1em]Here are the commands from the LL 4.0 Release Announcement[/size]
[size=1em]https://www.freecinema2022.gq/forums/release-announcements/linux-lite-4-0-beta-released/[/size]
[size=1em]-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------[/size]
[size=1em]sudo apt purge virtualbox*[/size]
[size=1em]sudo systemctl stop vboxadd.service[/size]
[size=1em]sudo systemctl stop vboxadd-service.service[/size]
[size=1em]sudo systemctl disable vboxadd.service[/size]
[size=1em]sudo systemctl disable vboxadd-service.service[/size]
[size=1em]Copy and paste one line in a terminal, hit enter, and go on to the next line until all lines are finished. Note any errors or output. If you have already run these commands doing it a second time shouldn't hurt anything.[/size]
Edit: Note, I forgot one step, please see post below this.

...and don't forget to untick the vbox client in the menu, settings, session and startup, application auto-start setting.
Re: Removing Virtual Box - mdiemer - 06-05-2018
Thank you Scott and Dana! I ran the commands again, this time one by one, and it made a big difference! I thought I was going to have to live with a slow-booting system, but things are fine now. LL 4.0 is working beautifully on my system, so glad I did the upgrade.

Does this also work for speeding up LL3.8 boot-time, which is slow on our Dell Lattitude D630?
I just want to check before entering this in command-line.
Many thanks for any replies.

it did speed up the boot time when i had linux lite 3.8 for me , first you have to "untick the vbox client in the menu, settings, session and startup, application auto-start setting" after that , then you do each command one at a time .
this also speed up the boot time for those and me on linux lite 4.2
Re: Removing Virtual Box - timbuck2 - 01-25-2019
So if I use VirtualBox from time to time, I have to have these start services running all the time? They can't dynamically load when I start up the VirtualBox application? Seems strange.
