I'm embarrassed. It turns out that dropbox (aside from the python issues) was trying to connect to X. I'm not sure why it was giving the output it did, but as soon as I cleared the $DISPLAY environment variable, it did it's thing. On Wed, Mar 30, 2011 at 2:44 PM, Nick Walker wrote: > On Wed, Ma

I've been avoiding actually putting into the system space. I'm just using the dropbox distributed package for user installation in the users home directory. Like I said, I'm pretty sure this is a problem with the security features of ubuntu server, opposed to a library issue. On Wed, Mar 30, 201

So I have a ubuntu box at home I use for one thing. If I have some time tonight I'll stick dropbox on it. I run it on several fedora machines that I use. I've never had a linked library issue. Have you removed it and then re-installed the dropbox package? --mmiller On Wed, Mar 30, 2011 at 2:3

I'm sure this is right before my eyes, but I still can't see it. A month or so ago, I was able to follow the instructions for 'installing' and using dropbox in CLI Linux (http://wiki.dropbox.com/TipsAndTricks/TextBasedLinuxInstall). It worked great. It took me about 10 minutes as I recall. I ch
