Cinnamon in Raring Ringtail

**zika** · February 15th, 2013

What would be preffered way of installing Cinnamon in RR...?
At my place (due to G3 and ricotz) I get:

Code:

:~$ sudo apt-get install cinnamon

Cinnamon should work using the nightly build from this ppa:

After turning that PPA on and after update I still get:

A bit different but the same problem persists...

This sounds like you are using the Ricotz testing PPA which uses mozjs188 (which does fix some bugs but we may have to wait for 13.10 for it to get into Ubuntu). If you want to use Cinnamon, you'll either need to rebuild Cinnamon yourself (or in a PPA that depends on the Ricotz testing PPA) or ppa-purge that PPA.

Yes, I use Ricotz's testing... I thought that there might be some shortcut, but...
My path is clear... Thank You...
Update₁:It was not worthy... Purged Ricotz's testing PPA and installed Cinnamon just to learn that it does not work: blank screen with cursor... Terminal opens but... For the record, I've been using Cinnamon earlier, not just as spice...

**mc4man** · February 16th, 2013

For what it's worth, (not much really), it does start up & run on a non-modded 13.04 install

Though at least here it still does need caribou/libcaribou0 installed to actually start up
(another crappy Debian maintainer package in Ubuntu

**fantab** · February 16th, 2013

I am using Cinnamon on my Raring along with Unity... I actually wanted to check out Nemo... but to have that I had to install Cinnamon.

I am using a stable ppa: https://launchpad.net/~gwendal-lebih...innamon-stable

It is working flawlessly AFAIK. I had a issue when 'cinnamon-settings' was not launching but that got fixed with recent python updates...

As for the problem you are having: I checked Synaptic and I have libgjs0c and I don't have libgjs0-libmoxjs185-1.0 in Synaptic or in my repos.

Try installing Cinnamon from the stable ppa above...
