I would recommend to follow Ben's advice and reinstalling both Nvidia as
well as virtual box in this order.
You seems to be missing correct kernel modules. I have not seen any
indication of uefi issues in the information given.
Reinstalling package can be done either by removing package and insta
I cannot really help you with advice for the exact thing you are asking
for: side by side hex and ASCII.
That being said, you should note that ASCII is not really used for a long
time - as in decade or more. These days, characters/text are encoded mostly
in UTF-8 with variable character code lengt
Check what dictionary languages you have installed and install what you
need, optionally uninstall what you do not need.
Look for aspell, ispell or myspell packages.
Hope this helps,

Lots of people helping - I lost track.
Are the basics understood at this point:
1. is your screen connected to the Nvidia graphics card or the internal
Intel graphics output?
2. Are you able to interactively change the resolution once you boot and in

Naming patterns are:
BD ~ 25GB
..DL ~ 50GB
..XL ~ 100GB

Removing old/new virtual box package will not touch your virtual machines.
When you install new vbox, your data/VMs will be there.
You know what they say about backups - it is waste of time and disk space -
until it is not.
Your virtualBox data/backup live in following two directories by default:
I think that it was you mentioning that virtual disks are in ~/.Virtual box
directory.
Regardless, this is no longer the case for many years. I have a feeling
that it has changed around v5.
These days vBox stores all VM related files under:
~/VirtualBox\ VMs directory
Configuration files are in:

~/.config/VirtualBox

by root?
I would have thought that it wouldn't, thought I have not tried.

It will require commands to run on both sides of the command line: a) your
desktop will need to authorize the connection (every time you start
desktop) b) Cron using that authorization to display the window.

Try to give path to that executable file - such as ~/linbpq or ./linbpq or
full path
It that is not enough - perhaps it is a script with invalid executable
