Could you give me a screenshot?

Ding Zhou,

yes I will, but how do I attach this to this site?

ray
ps I have sent the attached thru to your email address at <email address hidden>

Hi, ray.

I've received your screenshot. Thank you

By the way, this feature has been removed for the 0.6 version.

And I hope you can try the new version: http://blog.ubuntu-tweak.com/2011/12/13/ubuntu-tweak-0-6-is-close-to-releasing.html

Do remember, it is still beta so may have some bugs.

Ding Zhou,

when I linked to that site it says that is for ubuntu 11.10 and above but I run Kubuntu
10.10 maverick, so should I still use the 0.6 and how can I get it in a .deb format

ray

Ding Zhou,

can you answer back to via "<email address hidden>" as I use this mail for my K10.10mm
OK

No, you can't, because Ubuntu Tweak 0.6 only supports Ubuntu 11.10.

I recommend you to upgrade your system to Kubuntu 11.10.

Ding Zhou,

I want to keep k10.10 MM as I like it, as I dont want to go thru the hassells
of upgrading to 11.10(which I have not got)

Hi ray30, you can add the PPA via Terminal by executing these command

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-tweak-testing/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-tweak

Then tell us what you think about the program. Hope that helps :-)

JeanAustinR,
I did the below but was stopped at the second command in a terminal see below-

Oh I see. Alright, instead of adding that repository, use this one ppa:tualatrix/next. So the commands are

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tualatrix/next
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-tweak

 JeanAustinR.
I closed down and restarted the k10.10 mm and then went on-line and done those terminals sudo'sthe 1st one worked-the 2nd worked to a point of requesting me to load up the cd rom for the k10.10mm, of whichI just presses enter several times to get the prompt back, then Idid the 3rd command and low and behold it updated to tweak 0.6, the only problem is it stillshows those two updates outstanding, so I removed the ttf symbol and reinstalled which gotrid of the update but the wine one is still there, what should I do?

I closed down and restarted the k10.10 mm and then went on-line and done those terminals sudo's
the 1st one worked-
the 2nd worked to a point of requesting me to load up the cd rom for the k10.10mm, of which
I just presses enter several times to get the prompt back, then I
did the 3rd command and low and behold it updated to tweak 0.6, the only problem is it still
shows those two updates outstanding, so I removed the ttf symbol and reinstalled which got
rid of the update but the wine one is still there, what should I do?

ray

I'm sorry the two update items in Ubuntu Tweak may not the real update, so you can just ignore it.

Ding Zhou,

So mean that I have updated to 0.06 OK but the remaining two updates it still show,just ignore
them OK ?

ray

Thanks Ding Zhou, that solved my question.

JeanAustinr,

I have noticed thru IceWalkers app that ubuntu tweak 0.6.2 has been
released and stable ,so I downloaded the .deb format and installed but
missing repository "python-aptdeamon.gtk3widgets" and cant seem to
find to download it then install the update 0.6.2, as I have 0.6 with
my K10.10mm
do you know how to fix it?

ray

@ray30

Ubuntu Tweak 0.6.2 doesn't support 10.10, it only support 11.10, so...

Ding Zhou,

OK thanks for that advise, as had no idea, so will keep using what I have
