I did the upgrade from 6.06 LTS to 8.06 LTS.
I have three immediate problems.
1. At the top of the screen to the right of the System menu item, I have
funky dark rectangles where my Mozilla Foxfire and Evolution Icons
should be. During the installation it said it could not find the .png
files. Where do I get the Icons and where do I put them?
The icon for Firefox is located:
/usr/share/pixmaps/firefox-3.0.png
The icon for Evolution is located:
/usr/share/icons/Human/scalable/apps/evolution.svg
You can simply right click where the icon is supposed to be and select
"Properties", click on the box to the upper left and type those into the
resulting location bar at the top of the window.
Thanks did not think of right clicking. They were in the ICON choices.
2. Mozilla works from blank Icon, but Evolution blank Icon says "Could
not launch application, Failed to execute child process
"evolution-2.6" (No such file or directory)". How do I fix this?
Using the same "Properties" application as before, simply remove the
-2.6 section Command area, but be careful not to remove more.
The command area should read: evolution --component=mail when you're
done.
Got it also thanks.
3. Under menu Applications -> Office I have both "Evolution" and
"Evolution Mail and Calender" Selecting "Evolution" I get "Could not
launch application, Failed to execute child process "evolution-2.6" (No
such file or directory)".
Selecting "Evolution Mail and Calender" Evolution starts. It says
version 2.22.1 in the About. How do I get rid of the extra Evolution
menu without killing the evolution that works?
You can fix that by right clicking the word "Applications" and choosing
"Edit Menus"... then go to the Office and uncheck Mail and Calender
enter... then right click the other entry and remove the -2.6
part again.
There was no "edit menus" under Applications, but I found under System
-> Preference -> Main Menu and was able to fix it there.
Apologies for the problems you have experienced, hopefully the rest of
the process has gone great for you :)
Only thing not working at the moment is HP Printer attached to a Windows
XP computer. But I have not tried to figure out on my own, what is wrong
yet.
Thanks for the help.
