So which is it? Did the wallet picture appear and then disappear after a few minutes, or what?http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/2645/installing-bitcoin-on-ubuntu sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bitcoin/bitcoin sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install bitcoin-qt bitcoin icon appeared to Application list and available to execute, but nothing happened after start. wallet picture appared Please help Maybe try launching bitcoin-qt from the command line so you can see some console output and then paste that here. Title: Re: LinuxMint 12 lisa IBM T40 bitcoin-qt Post by: Red Emerald on April 08, 2012, 08:27:38 AM Try deleting ~/.bitcoin (make sure you backup your wallet in ~/.bitcoin/wallet.dat if you've used it!) and then reopen bitcoin-qt. I had that message when the blockchain download got interrupted on an old install.
What version does the ppa install? .6 has some speed improvements for the initial blockchain download.
