Title: Xubuntu 14.10 issue Post by: Este Nuno on January 03, 2015, 05:53:26 PM Just installed electrum via the instructions on electrum.org and when I run electrum and try to create a new wallet I enter a loop where it says "Electrum could not find an existing wallet." every time I press next. And that's all I can do no matter what option I choose. It's completely broken :(.

This doesn't appear to be related to "Technical discussion about Satoshi's Bitcoin client and the Bitcoin network in general. No third-party sites/clients, bug reports that do not require much discussion (use github), or support requests." So you'll likely get more responses in the correct forum. ;-) Title: Re: Xubuntu 14.10 issue Post by: Este Nuno on January 03, 2015, 06:00:36 PM Just installed electrum via the instructions on electrum.org and when I run electrum and try to create a new wallet I enter a loop where it says "Electrum could not find an existing wallet." every time I press next.

Title: Re: Xubuntu 14.10 issue Post by: allgoodthings1 on January 23, 2015, 06:29:34 PM Don't you have Electrum in the system repository? It's there on Ubuntu from 14.04. That makes it incredibly easy to download and update.

That makes it incredibly easy to download and update. I don't know but I'm pretty sure the version I got was the latest verison that's not the 2.0 beta. I just followed the instructions on the electrum website to install it. probably apt-get or something, i don't remember if i downloaded a package or just did it that way, but I'm thinking it was apt-get.
