Comment 46 for bug 1530523

Hi, I am experiencing this problem on a fresh install of Kubuntu 16.04/32bit x86 on an ancient Dell Vostro. Device manager simply hangs. Plugged in via cat5.

However, while I certainly had quite a bit of unix programming experience in the 80's and 90's {coughs, puts teeth in a glass, and takes a moment to yell "get off my lawn"}, I'm a noob at Linux and slowly inching my way into this apt-get mumblemumble business.

Can you tell me how to install the xenial-updates for Kubuntu (which I assume gets me the xapian packages?

Just blast out a few commandlines for me if you have a sec.

Thanks!
