Re: sudo
Hi there, thanks for your replies, this command su - , changes the directory ,
putting the following line :
ALWAYS_SET_PATH yes in /etc/login.defs it does the job, but according to the notes, it is not 100%, so I am not recommending it!

or
ALWAYS_SET_PATH=yes
which one is correct ?
ALWAYS_SET_PATH yes

Delete what you got completely and all the left overs , go to VirtualBox VMs, and delete the files directories inside it, you must install oracle jdk/jre or openjdk first. When downloading Virtuabox, be a good practice to down load its extension pack, as without it not much could be don, the extensi...

update nuisance
Update Wheezy and get the following error :
W: There is no public key available for the following key IDs:
63F7D4AFF6D61D45
It seems to be a redundant key, but it is annoying to see it pop up allover the place.
Any one knows of a fix for this?
