Yesterday I installed cinnamon
and nemo
but didn't like it (don't ask me why).
I am using unity now and I has no reason to remove cinnamon but now when I launch nautilus from terminal, I get this error:
Initializing nautilus-dropbox 1.4.0
Nautilus-Share-Message: Called "net usershare info" but it failed: 'net usershare'
returned error 255: info_fn: file /var/lib/samba/usershares/files is not a
well formed usershare file.
info_fn: Error was Path is not a directory.
This is the first time I am seeing this error, and I think removing cinnamon & nemo will solve the problem (But I want to remove it anyway).
So, sudo apt-get autoremove cinnamon nemo
shows that only ~7MB space will be freed, while ~70MB was downloaded. Where's the rest of space? And how do I solve that nautilus problem?
autoremove
once removed you have to execute this command to completely remove it with configuration files :sudo apt-get --purge remove cinnamon
. Sometime you need to execute same command two-three times to completely remove the packages.. Try it it will removecinnamon
completely.. Reply..--purge remove cinnamon
afterautoremove nemo cinnamon
didn't do anything. But runningautoremove nemo cinnamon
again removed additional 23MB. But the nautilus problem is still not solved. It says some problem withnautilus-dropbox
but dropbox share is working fine :/gnome
which was installed with cinnamon (I think :P). Any way to remove that too?Unity-shell
and completely remove all the configuration files of cinnamon. To do so execute this command :find . | grep cinnamon | xargs rm -r -f
. Then restart your system once..
