I'm fairly new to Linux. I just installed Ubuntu recently. I've recently been having problems with the Ubuntu Software Center. It will not start up and I cannot start it from the Terminal. This is the message it gives me (with nothing left out):

Anyone know how to disable the shortcut to paste using center button in Lucid? This is really really frustrating for me.

Using Lucid Lynx 10.04. Is your software center/ synaptic package manager working properly for you?
I just got Lucid installed after some minor troubles last night, but with the help of great people, I have it installed now (thank you!) and it all *ok, most* works beautifully!
However, I have been downloading/installing "Ubuntu restricted extras" , for the last 20 minutes now, and it is only at 12% .
In karmic koala, these things happened pretty quickly, but now it is just soooper slooooowww.
Before I started the restricted extras.. I installed VLC player, and that took about 15 minutes just for that. and now it is nowhere to be found!
It does not show in USC under installed software, nor does it show in synaptic..and it is in no menu, anywhere.
Speaking of synaptic...I cant get VLC, or Ubuntu restricted extras to show up, it does not 'find' them when I type their name into the search bar..it acts as if they don't exist.
I havent attempted to find, or install anything else that I had on my karmic box yet...only these 2 things, vlc and restricted extras....and both have been ..well.....painfully slow..... and vlc doesnt even seem to have installed, after it took 15-20 minutes, and said it was finished.
If this was "back to normal"...this would definitely be the best OS i have ever seen/used.
I have installet ubuntu lucid and it works fine.
After the installation of other user software like keepass and truecrypt, the software-center utility doesn't start.
I start it but the process start and after few second it exit from top utility. No screen output it doesn't start.
I tried to start in terminal and receive this log:

I am having issues launching the Ubuntu Software Center. I click it and it appears to start, but a window never comes up. I would like to either uninstall it and reinstall it or start it from the terminal.

I've been trying to download some software stuff off of the Ubuntu Software Center, but every time I try it tells me "Waiting for other software managers to quit", and just sits there at 0%. I've been waiting for 45 minutes for it to start the download of Pidgin.I looked in the Processes of System Monitor, and I dunno what other Software manager would be running. The only processes that are running are System Monitor... and then the process"software-center" under the Waiting Channel tab goes from 0 to "do_wait" to "poll_schedule_timeout", and its status goes from Running to Sleeping.

I recently tried installing numerous games from the Ubuntu Software Center and about 90 % of them simply wouldn't start up. Is this a known problem or is it just something I am experiencing?

I admit fooling around with trying to install nautilus elementary, not really knowing what I was doing, and now things are all messed up.
Is there any parameter for this? For exampleCode:gnome-terminal --maximizestarts Terminal fullscreen. I want to start calc in the screen's center so I won't need to search it on the display every time I run it. It'a annoying.

I can read 'starting terminal' but after that it's closed.I've uninstalled and re-installed it through the graphical tools (gnome-terminal) but that doesn't works fine.
View 3 Replies View RelatedYesterday, I made a clean install of 10.10 (64 bit). Among others, I installed World of Goo from a .deb file, and it worked fine.
Today, I wanted to install Skype from the .deb file. When I double-click the file, I get a "wait" cursor for ~20 sec, then nothing happens. When I try to start Software Center from the Main menu, I also get the Wait cursor and then nothing happens.
I started software-center from the terminal and the software center opened, despite some warnings in the terminal. I could install some random application from the list. Then I tried to start
Code:
And the software center window showed, with Skype selected. When I clicked Install, there was an error message. Despite the "no such a file or directory" part, I am sure that the file name is correct (I tab-completed it).
This is the error message I received when I tried to install:

Here are the warnings I received when I started the software center:

There seems to be a programming error in aptdaemon, the software that allows you to install/remove software and to perform other package management related tasks. Please report this error at [url] and retry.

I want to monitor my work on the terminal.I know we can use script command.But every time when I start the terminal, I have to type script to start it.I want to automate it. So where should I include this command so that it will start as soon as I start the terminal ?
MY WORK TILL NOW: I have put this "script" command in the .profile.The when I start the terminal, it became an INFINITE LOOP.I am able to "echo".Thats coming only once.....but if I write a "script" command then it is becoming an INFINITE LOOP.
I'd like to make all window of of all applications are located in the center of screen when they are started every single time, is there any way to do that ? of course,what i am saying that they are GUI apps, and when they are not started as maximum size window

I have just downloaded Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid and I tried installing it on my desktop computer from a live USB stick created with Universal USB Installer under Windows 7. The startup menu loads fine, but then I select "Run Ubuntu from this USB" or "Install" and Ubuntu freezes on the startup screen after about 30 seconds - 1 minute. The problem is my computer because Ubuntu Lucid does starts properly on another machine when booted from the same USB drive. I can also start correctly other live distros such as Parted Magic or Clonezilla.
