Fix missing icons and ugly theme in Evolution on Kubuntu 11.10

Tue, 18 Sep 2012 06:43:05 +0000

This how Evolution looks like on Kubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric).

To fix this, make sure this package is installed: “humanity-icon-theme”, then create $HOME/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini.

[Settings]
gtk-fallback-icon-theme = Humanity

Restart Evolution, and it should be fixed.

Ubuntu 11.10: 32-bit applications do not run 64-bit

Thu, 27 Oct 2011 11:47:05 +0000

After upgrading from natty (11.04) to oneiric (11.10), some 32-bit applications don’t run anymore. I have ‘ia32-libs’ and ‘libc6-i386’ packages installed. For example, when I run Android adb,

$ ./adb
bash: ./adb: No such file or directory
$ file adb
adb: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.8, stripped

After googling around, the fix is quite simple: re-install ‘libc6-i386’.

$ sudo apt-get install --reinstall libc6-i386
$ ./adb
Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.29
 -d                            - directs command to the only connected USB device
                                 returns an error if more than one USB device is present.
 -e                            - directs command to the only running emulator.
...
