Re: [ubuntu-uk] Installing Safari on Ubuntu

Yay, well I hate giving up. I decided to try once more, and as I had my Maclin folder on the Desktop and trying to install it from there, I decided to transfer it to a Downloads folder and try again. It worked that time. I have no idea why it wouldnt recognise it on the Desktop, but it is now i

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Installing Safari on Ubuntu

Well, I decided to remove it from the system. I like it, but until I get used to Ubuntu more, I will keep it stored then install it some other time. It looks good though. I'm glad that I found it. Thanks everybody. John. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/

Sorry, been using Unix for 20+ years so take these things for granted... To explain, "~" is a character for the home directory of a person. In the following examples "$" indicates a command prompt and should be ignored - it's just to illustrate it's a command, not narrative. $ cd ~ takes you to

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Installing Safari on Ubuntu

I don't know why anybody would want the Windows Safari look at all, it's all battleship grey and quite lacking in any of the beauty of either Compiz or Vista Aero. My advice is to give up trying to get Safari running on Ubuntu and instead go and see a psychiatrist... he may be able to cure you of

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Installing Safari on Ubuntu

You don't say why you liked Safari, John... if it was the way it rendered be aware that Google Chrome uses the same rendering engine and Konquerer is effectively a sibling (ie. Safari was effectively a branch of a previous version of Konquerer so they're not identical but very similar). Sean --
