Interesting ... I have used gThumb photo viewer in the past and it can be found on the software store .... I downloaded it as before but when I tried to open it I just kept getting that little whirligig like it was trying to open but finally timed out with out opening .... I installed and deleted it 3-4 times with the same results ....
I used it before and kinda like it ...
The Software store pushes a Flatpak.
Better to get it from the Source:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:dhor/myway
sudo apt update && sudo apt install gthumb
Thank you sir that was the ticket ... oh by the way I reinstalled XFCE last night before I went to bed .... seems to be working just fine but I'm typing this on Gnome .... when I get ready to install something else I'll let you know ....
New Linux user needs help.
I've installed gThumb and everything works so far. But when I try to access a storage medium via gThumb an error appears:
"The position» / media / jonas / FOTOHAUPT «could not be loaded. // Error while getting the information for file» / media / jonas / FOTOHAUPT «: No such file or directory "
I can access the storage medium in my file manager without any problems.
Your posting has been moved to the pre-existing thread regarding gThumb. I think the solurion provided by @Aravisian should also work for you.
I will ask @Aravisian
thanks, it works now after a few reboots of gThumb.
That's good. I was reviewing this and was Stumped.
