Cant Download New Icon Themes

I was copying the contents of a flash drive to a folder. In the middle of it I got an error message:

'Error splicing file: input/output error'

and then it said 'do you want to skip or retry?' And the "all" button was there too. Anyway, I skipped. When I checked the folder, all my data seemed to be there.

Do you think it was?

I mean, what are the implications of the error message and of my "skipping" it?

Next up, when I looked at the contents of my flash drive all the folders and files have a lock icon on them. I can open the files but I can't edit them. And no, the lock switch on my flash drive is not pressed.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

I have downloaded an attachment from a website and an icon has now appeared on the bottom panel of my debian distro with gnome shell (classic).
This icon will not go away even with reboot.
If I right-click on the icon it offers me 'launch' and 'properties' option. But there is no 'delete' option.

If I click on the icon it will take me back to the same website and open the attachment again.
Now it's forever on the bottom panel of my desktop.
Clearly this is a bug.
Can someone please advise how I can get rid of this? Thank you in advance.

How can I install gtk themes from the command line? I have been looking for hours and I cant find anything.

Running Xubuntu 14.10 (and out of patience). Got a Nikon Coolpix L15 and hooked it up to my Dell Optiplex 170L via a USB cord. The camera icon pops up. I double click on it and get to the photos, but then the whole thing starts bogging down and I can't copy the photos and something crashes. (Not the whole computer.) I'll attach the report. (It's in two screenshots because it didn't fit in one.)

And when it bogged it also gave me an error message window with 'One or more applications are keeping the volume busy. (PID-0)'

And I thought it was kind of treating the camera as a usb drive. When I hovered the cursor over the camera icon it showed:

'Mounted in "gphoto2://[usb:004,002]/"

and it showed:

0 bytes left (0 bytes total)

And there was four photos and a video on the camera.

I checked and was able to download the photos and video on a Windows computer, so I don't think the issue is with the camera or the files.

Because of the 'volume busy' error message I closed out everything on the computer and was still getting the same messages when I tried to transfer.

It seems close to doing it. I can highlight a photo but then it all bogs down and crashes.

I downloaded the firefox and extracted it using tar xjvf
And then when I try to open from a terminal
I get above error
Error : no display specified

It also default firefox 4.0b12. It opens when I click on the firefox icon and but not via terminal.

I want to open extracted latest firefox via terminal.

Any solutions available for the same.

Hi all,

Dear All,

I am using OLE 6.2, 32 bit. Today I was trying to open the other drives (windows C drive and external drive both are ntfs), when I tried to open it, I go the following error

Error mounting: mount: unknown filesystem type 'ntfs'

Please advise how can I fix it, I did a google search but since I am new I am unable to understand what I should really do. Sept by Sept advise would be of great help.

Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone, I am a new member and also new to linux, I encountered a problem, but last week I tried but did not solve
I downloaded iso file linux 1.1.0 on page potassium https://www.kali.org, I installed on my Dell inspiron n4010, it works very well and does not have any errors, but after I update and upgrade all packages, I rebooted the system switches to the command line, I lost a lot of time to return to the graphics, but when booting up the network manager icon not seen, I have set the package network-manager-gnome_0.9.4.1-0ubuntu2_i386.deb network manager icon show but when click on the network manager icon only contained text "network manager is not running."
I also installed Wicd but could not run "could not connect to wicd's D-Bus interface. Check the wicd log for error messages."
wireless driver apparently was set before
root@kali:~# airmon-ng
PHY Interface Driver Chipset

phy0 wlan0 wl Broadcom Corporation BCM4313 802.11b/g/n (rev 01)

please help me!
please guide installed offline, my kali linux no internet connection. can download package from another machine to install.

I'm using Linux Mint 16 "petra" and normally I can see in the task bar whether or not there are software updates available or not. For the past week or so, I have not been able to get any connection to the mintUpdate site and the icon in the task bar shows a red X on the shield.

When I right-click on the icon and select "Information" I get the message below.

<<
++ Launching mintUpdate in user mode
++ Testing initial connection
-- No connection found (tried to ping google.com) - sleeping for 30 seconds
++ Starting refresh
++ Auto-refresh timer is going to sleep for 15 minutes, 0 hours and 0 days
-- Error in checkAPT.py, could not refresh the list of packages
>>

Can anybody out there inform me what may be wrong with either my system or with the mintUpdate site? I'm able to connect to the Internet without any problem.

Thanks in advance for your reaction!

The Internet connection icon in the notification area of my desktop panel shows the status of my computer's connection to my LAN and hence to the www – at least, it did from the date of first connection, in late 2013, until about December of 2014. It was infallible. Then, shortly before Christmas last year, router trouble on the LAN meant that no Internet service was available for the best part of a week whilst repairs/replacements were effected. Restoration of the LAN brought all four of my computers back on line (1 Linux Mint and 3 Windows XP) Ostensibly nothing had, nor needed to be, changed, as far as net connection addresses were concerned. The XP computers simply picked up where they had left off some days earlier but the Linux machine returned with a disabled LAN connection icon that has remained in that state ever since. Nothing else is affected, I continue to log on and off as normal and enjoy the same network services as before but nothing will now persuade the connection icon to change its disconnected state. If I right click the icon, and then click 'Connection Information', I get, “No valid active connections found,” which is at complete variance with the facts. I have used the 'Edit Connections' option but can find nothing apparently amiss. Wired Connection 1 appears to have retained its previous settings so the loss of function is a bit of a mystery. Anyone got any ideas?
