Update: 25 Safar 1433H / 19 Jan 2012M, Khamis.
With a new laptop (mentioned in this post: How to solve Flash problems on Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot) and Ubuntu 11.10 freshly setup, problems are bound to appear frequently at the beginning.
After ironing out the Flash problem, now here's another problem; i can't view the PDF compiled in Kile. As seen in Pic 1, i get the error:
[ViewPDF] failed to start
Checking Kile in Ubuntu Software Center as seen in Pic 2, i had every add-ons marked except for one that i definitely don't need and isn't the cause for this error. So if everything is there, then why the error?
Another check in Ubuntu Software Center for Okular, turns out that it wasn't installed along with Kile; each package had to be installed individually.
By now, you can guess how to solve this problem.
1. Run Ubuntu Software Center.
2. In the Ubuntu Software Center window, type the search term okular in the search field. The search results will be auto-filtered as seen in Pic 3.
3. In the search results, click on the Okular (okular) package. A More Info button and Install button will appear below the package's name, see Pic 3.
If you want to add add-ons, click the More Info button. From here, go to Step 4.
If you don't need any add-ons or straightaway want to install the package, click the Install button. From here, go to Step 6.
4. Tick the add-ons you need or untick the add-ons you do not need. Then click the Apply Changes button. See Pic 4.
5. After changes have been applied, click the Install button, see Pic 5.
6. An Authenticate window will appear prompting for your password. Key-in your password then click the Authenticate button. See Pic 6.
7. Once installation is complete, the Install button (see Pic 5) will turn into the Remove button, see Pic 7.
Try recompiling your document in Kile. My problem went away by now. See Pic 8.
Thanks man!
