In my attempt to recover I seem to have deleted the icon for software-center in the left side menu of Unity. I went up to the dashboard thingy and tried to get it there. But it didn't show. I am kind of new to Ubuntu and Linux and do not know how to get to the program files directory or how to make a shortcut for the programs I find there even if I succeed in getting there. Please send me directions on how I can get its icon back onto the left side menu. Then I will try to reproduce the problem and send you the log file.
Thank you for the prompt reply. Down in my computer down in Florida where I spent the winter I have Gnome NOT Unity and I like that better and find it easier to work with than Unity. I use Software Center in Unity quite often and am a little frustrated without it. *-Richard* On Wed, Sep 26, 2012 at 6:20 PM, Gary Lasker <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi Richard, and thank you for your bug report.
