cuppajoeman 0 Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 So I just installed Ubuntu on a new pc, and then when I downloaded synergy for Ubuntu x64 I try and install it but it never loads, just asks for password, I put it in. Then nothing happens. I will show some pictures of those steps in order. Thanks for any help in advance. Â Link to post Share on other sites
GranPaSmurf 108 Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 Have you been able to install other programs on 18.04? Tried a reboot and then install? I'm using it too, and I didn't see this issue. Â Link to post Share on other sites
Davewill 18 Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 Try installing it manually from the command line so you can see the output from the actual install process. $ sudo apt-get install <deb file> Â 1 Link to post Share on other sites
cuppajoeman 0 Posted May 6, 2018 Author Share Posted May 6, 2018 Ok I tried again through the terminal and here were my results, I also couldn't help and noticed that the download size was 0 bytes. Link to post Share on other sites
Davewill 18 Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 (edited) My bad, the command line should have been: sudo apt install /path/to/deb/file You can also use: sudo dpkg -i /path/to/deb/file followed by sudo apt-get install -f  Edited May 6, 2018 by Davewill Link to post Share on other sites
cuppajoeman 0 Posted May 7, 2018 Author Share Posted May 7, 2018 Just tried installing it again from the site, and it seems to have worked now. Who knows...  Thanks for the help guys! Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Andrew Nelless Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 This could be related to the issue discussed in the other thread, and may be fixed in 2.0.11 (due out today) Â Â Link to post Share on other sites
Heezy 0 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 For what its worth I had to install libcurl3 for the installer to work using the sudo apt install method above, once I installed libcurl3 (sudo apt install libcurl3) everything worked great. Link to post Share on other sites
