I have had this issue ever since installing 1.8 64bit.
Limewire installs and runs fine.....for Limewire.
I click on the link for Frostwire, and absolutely nothing
happens.
Any ideas??
Cheers
Frostwire will not run with compiz running period, I am fairly certain where the problem resides, multiple bug reports have been filed.
Allow me to correct myself another bug filed...
- Code: Select all
cd /usr/lib/frostwire
java -jar FrostWire.jar
Let me know if that does not fix it for you. If it is the second that fixes it for you, I will re-write that section and make it work, is it my job to fix their software? I provide an example:
- Code: Select all
function wopinstall {
dpkg_check
if test -f worldofpadman.run
then
./worldofpadman.run 2>&1 | zenity --window-icon=/usr/share/ultamatix/pixmaps/wop.png --width=600 --height=100 --progress --pulsate --auto-close --title "Installing World Of Padman..."
else
wget -c http://thilo.kickchat.com/download/worldofpadman.run 2>&1 | sed -u 's/.*\ \([0-9]\+%\)\ \+\([0-9.]\+\ [KMB\/s]\+\)$/\1\n# Downloading \2/' | zenity --window-icon=/usr/share/ultamatix/pixmaps/wop.png --width=600 --height=100 --progress --auto-close --title="Downloading World Of Padman..."
sudo chmod +x worldofpadman.run
./worldofpadman.run 2>&1 | zenity --window-icon=/usr/share/ultamatix/pixmaps/wop.png --width=600 --height=100 --progress --pulsate --auto-close --title "Installing World Of Padman..."

}
Note the: #create Icon since they cant seem to do it right
#since we have root we need to discover normal username so we can create the shortcut & set proper permissions. I have done that more then once creating Ultamatix... Just not my job. Keeps getting better notice this as well... #created custom uninstaller since theirs does not work. kicks back "Could not find a usable uninstall program. Aborting." I will not even get into the python I have re-written.

Gosh darn show off! I bet you think you know everything about Ultamatix don't you!? .... ok, maybe you do... but I betcha I have a nicer hair-cut than you do
You are probably correct at least about the haircut, I am pretty much bald
Testing 32 bit I traced down the problem wxwidgets declared in maininterface.py, even though it was not being used, works perfectly now, testing compiz fusion git built (yery experimental), what it tells you before installation:
This is a very experimental script!!! You risk having to possibly re-install your O/S or break compiz. If YOU ARE SURE you want to install Compiz fusion (git built) then hit YES or else hit NO. If you hit NO, Ultamatix will resume with the rest of the chosen options.
Fun fun... After I finish testing I will install vanilla hardy and test it there as well, if all goes well I may be putting the website up sometime this weekend.
Have a good weekend,
