I can also access the virtual terminal (but I cannot get a network connection from the virtual terminal).
I am able to enter terminal commands between the flickers on the main desktop. (This icon problem is also on the main, flickering desktop.) I did create and log into a 2nd user-account on the same system, to see if the problem persisted there.Įverything is fine on the 2nd desktop except that all icons there are white, with a red "X" inside of them.
#CALIBRE EPUB READER HOW TO#
I am stumped as to how to tackle the problem of a flickering, strobe-light-like desktop. I made sure I had current versions of all of Calibre's dependencies.Ĭan anyone suggest what further steps I might take to recover a functioning desktop in this situation? Thanks. Since I have python 3.5 installed (and xdg-utils and wget), I didn't anticipate a problem. "You must have xdg-utils, wget and python ≥ 2.6 installed on your system before running the installer."
#CALIBRE EPUB READER INSTALL#
On the download page, below the install command, it says: I later removed Calibre with the recommended "sudo calibre-uninstall" but of course the desktop was, and is, still broken. Sudo -v & wget -nv -O- | sudo python -c "import sys main=lambda:('Download failed\n') exec(()) main()" I installed Calibre according to the instructions on its download page here (). So I can't use my 16.04 system and am posting this from my 14.04 drive. The second I was logged in, instantly the entire screen on both my monitors did this whole BLINK-BLINK-BLINK-BLINK thing and just kept flickering like that. I re-booted, and the login screen was black (background image totally not there), but the username & password boxes still appeared, so at least I could log in. So I installed Calibre - the ebook reader - on my Xenial drive and noticed right away that the icons on my top-panel & my desktop were suddenly all-white with a red "X" on them.
