LuckyBackup not working in LL50

[arky217]

I think I've found a solution or at least a "better" workaround; open a terminal and type

Code:

pkexec env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY luckybackup

a window should pop up for you to type in your password and LBSU  should launch/start and if it does, open a terminal and type

Code:

sudo nano /usr/bin/luckybackup-pkexec

comment the lines in the file, copy/paste the pkexec command above, hit Ctrl + o to save changes and then Ctrl + x to close nano.



Now, click on menu, search for luckybackup and click on LBSU, a window should pop up for you to type in your password, hit enter and LBSU should start without a problem, at least It did here.

Moltke, the procedure I did in post #8 works fine for me, but I did start to do what you mentioned above.

But when I copied  pkexec env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY luckybackup
and pasted it in the terminal, I got a Warning- Unsafe Paste with the options to quit or paste.
Wasn't sure if I was about to mess something up, so I chose quit.

Did you get any warning when you entered that in the terminal ?
