However I luckily saw Matthew's reply - and then I could read the full messages on Sourceforge's email archive. The problem you are seeing is specific to Ubuntu and the Unity Desktop in particular. See: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/viking/+bug/1255275 + https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity-gtk-module/+bug/1258669 Running Viking under another Desktop such as LXDE (lubuntu-desktop), solves the issue as the program operates correctly. There are workarounds to avoid using the Global Menu, so from the command line run it like this: env UBUNTU_MENUPROXY= viking or amend the exec statement similarly in the file /usr/share/applications/viking.desktop to read: Exec=env UBUNTU_MENUPROXY= viking %F The latter will fix running Viking via desktop icons.
