i have both versions of trisquel 5.5 the normal( the gnome fallback )
and the mini(lxde) flavour installed on my laptop.
when i installed the gnome edition i did a erase hard-drive and install
trisquel in the installer.
and when i installed the trisquel-mini flavour i used the install besides
trisquel option in the installer i installed a few development tools and IDE
s using synaptic on both installs
the packages installed fine on the gnome edition but synaptic on mini quit
with some errors which were along the lines of "respos. not found" i think my
wi-fi was disconnected, i thought it would be ok if i closed the synaptic
window and shutdown the system but the next time i booted up the mini install
got to the login window i typed in my password-username but i was presented
with an error which was
unable to write to /tmp , x server may quit unexpectedly.
this message stays on for a little time and i am redirected to the login
screen.
on the other hand the gnome install is just fine infact i am logged into it
right now.
i really don't want to reinstall trisquel mini i just want to find a
workaround to this problem and make the existing mini install usable again .
Any help will be much appreciated .
regards
APM
