Re: something wrong with mint-artwork-gnome?
I now see that you have the Daryna KDE edition and we're talking mint-artwork-gnome. It could be in there anyway, I don't remember. You have not tried to install some minty art from Elyssa/Felicia have you?

Ah no i'm back to using gnome again. I just forgot to change my sig. I'm using the Felicia preview release downloaded and installed about a week ago.Husse wrote:I now see that you have the Daryna KDE edition and we're talking mint-artwork-gnome.

Did you remove OpenOffice by any chance?

Re: something wrong with mint-artwork-gnome?
Now that Clem has put me on the right track I realize the significance of this line in your error message
I'm not quite sure if this is to recommend but you could use mintDesktop to restore the splash - a restore that in this case probably will not be a restore but an install.
It's trying to copy ( cp ) a non existing file and Mint has it's own splash for OOcp: cannot create regular file `/usr/lib/openoffice/program/openintro_ubuntu_sun.bmp': No such file or directory

Something along that line - yeshis wouldn't have to do with a splash directory for oop 2 being removed when i removed it and it's trying to retor it to there would it?
We've got to make another try - you had
What if you create a .bmp file and call it openintro_ubuntu_sun.bmp (put it on the desktop)cp: cannot create regular file `/usr/lib/openoffice/program/openintro_ubuntu_sun.bmp': No such file or directory
Then
Code: Select all
sudo cp /usr/lib/openoffice/program/openintro_ubuntu_sun.bmp
I mean it can't hurt because if we don't fix this it's a reinstall...

ThenIn spite of the error message I think that's the original file not the destination. And when dpkg finds something to copy it is happyCode: Select all
sudo cp /usr/lib/openoffice/program/openintro_ubuntu_sun.bmp

ron@ron-laptop ~ $ sudo cp /usr/lib/openoffice/program/openintro_ubuntu_sun.bmp
[sudo] password for ron:
cp: missing destination file operand after `/usr/lib/openoffice/program/openintro_ubuntu_sun.bmp'
Try `cp --help' for more information.
Wouldn't i need to make the missing directory first?

Re: something wrong with mint-artwork-gnome?
Surely you have /usr/lib/openoffice/program/ ?
But if you don't yes - sudo mkdir /usr/lib/openoffice/program/

Re: something wrong with mint-artwork-gnome?
Probably my fault - I write too much
I always check for errors in my answers, but I'm only human
Should be
sudo mkdir /usr/lib/openoffice/program
No trailing /
Error messages are not always on the spot ....
But first check if such a folder exists
