Try removing the garbage can. Your trash folder is /home/user_name/.local/share/Trash and has two subfolders, named files and info. You should be able to remove the /Trash folder and then recreate...

Can you access it via cups and if so can you affect changes?

See if you've got a file /etc/default/bootlogd and if so you can enable boot logging. File should look like this:


# Run bootlogd at startup ?
BOOTLOGD_ENABLE=Yes
#BOOTLOGD_ENABLE=No

I had a .run file when I installed vbox, it looked like a bash script except for the extension. Might have to be root.


sh filename.run

forteller, did you follow the post with the .deb file?

These links might help determining what ports are open/blocked.

Try this for launcher command:


/bin/bash /usr/local/bin/SomeFileName.bin

Could always retry your original attempt at installing it AFTER installing libpng3, and then purge kobo-desktop.

Let us know what works. I had to do the uninstall thing like I've outlined for you...

Okay, well since it won't install it so we can purge it we have option b...

So
ar -x kobo-desktop.deb yielded the control.tar.gz and data.tar.gz files. We're not interested in the...

I've dl'ed the file and .deb's aren't hard to take apart. It's just an ar file so:


ar -x <somefilename.deb> will extract it. I'll have a look at what it does where. Work calls right now...

See if you've got kobo* in /var/lib/dpkg/info/ directory.

Highly likely your ISP is blocking the port.

Best to get it from the repos for the distro/version you're running. If you're running Ubuntu:

Works here. Try loading it in safe mode.

You may have another problem. I just loaded my bad-domains file for squid and it's 1.48 million lines, about 26 megs, and it loaded in about 3 seconds.

Vim loaded it before I could count to 2.

So you installed a package that you retrieved from somewhere other than the repos? If not retrieved from the repos did you use gdebi to install it?

Have a look in /var/cache/apt/archives and see if you can find the original .deb file you installed from; won't be there if you dl'ed it from outside the repos unless you put it there. If you've got...

Apple ][e, 1978.

Try reinstalling it:


# > aptitude reinstall gnome-panel

I think that file type is some sort of standard for Mac's, or was.

I use rsync daily to backup / , on it's own drive, and $HOME, also on it's own drive to a third drive. You can use this as part of your backup strategy to generate a list of installed packages.

According to the links provided earlier you won't be able to open them on Ubuntu. Don't know about XP, no windows here... :)

From what I can find from search engines that archive type isn't supported on *nix type machines.
