It installed 0.9.8, which is the latest version listed on the Meteo Gitlab site. >On the bottom of my last reply there's a link to an article about >installing Mateo on diff distros. Under Ubuntu it talks about running >s sym link command to ensure that QT5 is the system default. The Gitlab bitseater page suggests to use snap, so that is what I did. But you're right, the link at the bottom of your e-mail (which you echoed at the beginning of the e-mail) discusses a lot of other things, and I didn't do any of them. I just let snap do its thing. >Again, don't know much about this stuff, but something like that might >affect how the applet is rendered/displayed. I'm going to use snap to uninstall it, and then follow the instructions from the link. >It also might be worth trying Cumulus and/or Coffee, booth are similar >to Mateo to see if you can get either of those to work. I looked at both of them. Coffee adds news, which I don't really want, and regarding cumulus: 1) it couldn't find an internet connection - error message "The owner of /home/jjj/.config/ibus/bus is not root!" 2) it opens a tiny window with a font that is about 1mm high - virtually illegible, and there appears to be no way to change it. I'm still working on meteo. Stay tuned. _______________________________________________ PLUG: https://pdxlinux.org PLUG mailing list PLUG@pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
