-Logging into Desktop GUI only gives a blank screen: +
-  * Tried updating VirtualBox Guest Additions to v5.2-5.2.24 but no change +
-  * Tried updating packages using commands below +
- +
-Use these commands to update packages, as it allows interactive use to answer questions: +
-<code> +
-sudo apt update +
-sudo apt upgrade +
-</code> +
- +
-Very slow using Ubuntu GUI now: +
-  * Enable 3D acceleration in VirtualBox settings +
-  * Allocate 128MB video RAM +
-  * Restart and test +
-  * Also see these links: +
-    * [[https://thomas.vanhoutte.be/miniblog/guide-speed-up-ubuntu-virtualbox/|Speeding up Ubuntu]] +
-    * [[https://www.linuxbabe.com/virtualbox/speed-up-ubuntu-virtualbox]] +
- +
-Check that 3D acceleration is supported: +
- +
-  sudo apt install nux-tools +
-  /usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p +
- +
- +
-Installing mysql: +
- +
-<code> +
-sudo apt install mysql-client-core-5.7    +
-sudo apt install mysql-server +
-sudo /usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation +
-</code> +
- +
-Then login like this: +
-  sudo mysql -u root -p +
-   +
-Login with a non-root user like this: +
-  mysql -u username -p +
-   +
-See notes at [[https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-mysql-on-ubuntu-18-04]] for setting up a new user +
- +
-Other SQL commands/testing: +
- +
- +
-  CREATE USER 'username'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password'; +
-  GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'username'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password'; +
-  CREATE DATABASE dbname; +
-  SET PASSWORD FOR 'username'@'localhost' = PASSWORD('password'); +
-   +
-   +
-To fix this locale error upon login: +
- +
-<code> +
--bash: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (en_US) +
-</code> +
- +
-run the following: +
-   +
-  sudo locale-gen en_US +
-  locale -a +
-   +
-and confirm you see en_US now.  See [[https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1675347&page=2]] for more info. +
