AWN applets

Post by gregbzh »

Hello. I'm trying out Linux Mint on a second PC and have been an Ubuntu user for several years. For some reason I can't seem to get AWN applets to work in Mint, although I got them working no worries in Ubuntu Hardy. Could someone please point me in the right direction?

Cheers.

Have you installed the applets deb aswell? I believe there are two debs to install, the base awn package, and the one which contains all the applets.

Hi ,this is how I installed awn and applets.

First things first, open a terminal then copy and paste away.

Code: Select all

echo 'deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/reacocard-awn/ubuntu hardy main'  |  sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list

Code: Select all

echo 'deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/reacocard-awn/ubuntu hardy main'  |  sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
then,

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get update
and finally.....

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install avant-window-navigator-bzr awn-core-applets-bzr awn-manager-bzr
I hope this helps :D .
