diogenes_mate|80803, how did you install that app?15:54
mate|80803I installed with a .deb package15:54
diogenes_isn't it available in the software boutique?15:55
mate|80803diogenes - No I was unable to find it in software boutique15:56
diogenes_ok where did you get the .deb then?15:56
mate|80803I used Gdebi package installer15:57
mate|80803github I believe15:57
diogenes_link?15:57
mate|80803actually it was sourceforge - https://sourceforge.net/projects/wiibafu/15:58
diogenes_so at what point it stopped working?16:00
mate|80803Thats not it I appologize16:01
mate|80803it was a .deb16:01
mate|80803When I click on launcher hour glass comes up and spins then stops16:02
diogenes_mate|80803, did it work in the past on your current OS version? or different OS version?16:04
mate|80803It worked with current version - unless an update "broke" something16:05
diogenes_ok run in terminal: ls /usr/bin | grep "backup" | nc termbin.com 999916:06
diogenes_share the link here16:06
mate|80803https://sourceforge.net/projects/wiibafu/files/Wii%20Backup%20Fusion%201.1/wiibafu_1.1-1_i386.deb/download16:06
diogenes_run the above command ^^^16:07
mate|80803that was the actual link for the .deb16:07
mate|80803http://termbin.com/dhqd16:09
mate|80803Is that what you requested?16:10
diogenes_yes, what I mean is you have to find out the command that starts your app and instead on double clicking on the shortcut, you run the command in the terminal and see what is the actual error that prevens your app to start.16:11
mate|80803That did not give me the correct command , did it?16:12
diogenes_do you have a shortcut of your app?16:13
mate|80803actually I do not I have wanted to try and run fom CLI but haven't been able to0 find the right command to enter in terminal16:14
mate|80803I do have a shorcut created on desktop16:14
diogenes_ok now16:14

mate|80803Bus error (core dumped)16:20
mate|80803Bus error (core dumped)16:20
diogenes_ok, there must be some bug since your app was released 7 years ago and I don't know if it's maintained yet16:22
mate|80803I get that but the App worked recently16:22
mate|80803I used the app several times and when I went to use it the other day this what I got ..... I would have assumed that reinstalling would make it right but no luck16:25
