Question:

After doing an update on my Xubuntu:

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

I found after restarting the following tray icon I was not able to identify:

A black monitor (screen) with a red "do not park here" sign.

I was guessing that it has something to do with the graphic driver, but I am using a Lenovo T61 from 10 years ago and I think it has an integrated graphic chip.

System info:

Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS Release: 14.04 Codename: trusty

Lenovo T61 (2006?) Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T7100 @ 1.80GHz

I do not get any description while hovering over or clicking it. Google search brought nothing up. The computer is working, so it is not a big deal but I am curious what he wants to tell me :D

I appreciate your suggestions!

Best regards

Carlo

The icon means that you have broken packages. To fix that, just press Ctrl+Alt+T on your keyboard to open Terminal. When it opens, run the command(s) below:

sudo apt-get --fix-broken install
sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get autoclean && sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

Or you can install synaptic using

sudo apt-get install synaptic

Once installed, open the program, and click on Edit --> Fix Broken Packages.
