Solved - problem is the target directory /usr/local/go/ doesn't exist. Have to manually create it and all subdirectories referenced in the install.sh script.

The problem then becomes that go's...

Hi all, I'm trying to install Go 1.4.2 using the Alternatives system, but getting an error I don't understand yet:

Thank you! Exactly what I was looking for. I figured I could restart it, just wasn't sure the process name. Much appreciated!

Thanks again fred, all done and working. Much appreciated!

Thanks Fred. So to have separate Windows System and Windows Data partitions, I would need to free up two primaries, which would have to be done by putting both /boot an /swap on logical partitions...

Awesome, thanks, just what I was hoping for. Sounds like the most painless way to do this to move /swap to a logical partition in sda4, and reallocate the old /swap primary to windows.

Any idea...

Ok, will check out lvm partitioning schemes too, thanks.

Thanks mw. Clarification: What's the 'dows' partition?

Hi all, I have a laptop with Ubuntu 12.04 x64 using 4 primary partitions (gparted screenshot attached):

Did that above already. Uninstalled all three, then reinstalled only python-wxgtk2.8 and python-wxversion. No luck :(

Looks right:


$> cat /usr/lib/wx/python/wx2.8.pth
wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode

Thanks, I tried something similar - complete uninstall and reinstall of all wx related files - python-wxgtk2.6, python-wxgtk2.8, python-wxversion (only reinstalled second two, left 2.6 out). Still...

Many times on my laptop (Ubuntu 12.04 Unity 2D) I want to see much more of the contents of a dialog window than its tiny initial size allows (I'm looking at you browser bookmark dialogs).

Fixed it, woohoo! The problem is that /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode/ is not in Python's sys.path for some reason.
