[SOLVED] Popcorn time movie stream

[Fintan]

Hi. It has been a long while. Busy. I really like Beaver so far. Just one thing I am encountering, is the installation of popcorn time movie streamer.

This what I did under 17.10:

$ wget https://get.popcorntime.sh/build/Popcorn-Time-0.3.10-Linux-64.tar.xz -O popcorntime.tar.xz
wget https://get.popcorntime.sh/build/Popcorn-Time-0.3.10-Linux-64.tar.xz -O popcorntime.tar.xz
sudo ln -sf /opt/popcorntime/Popcorn-Time /usr/bin/Popcorn-Time
sudo nano /usr/share/applications/popcorntime.desktop

Always get a " cannot find command" from the first line.

Any ideas?

Cheers

I have a lot of ideas, but nothing that would help solve your problem. One idea I have is to welcome you back, Fintan. Holy cow -- it has been awhile! Nice to hear from you.

O.K., your wget looks like this:

3. To overwrite the log file of the wget command

wget http://www.example.com/filename.txt -o /path/filename.txt

Are you entering -o or -0?

The command is wget. I assume you installed it. (It still works under Neon)

Yeah and thanks same here. Turns out Kubuntu is just getting more and more boring. NO more drivers to install/tweek. Or wierd software install issues (except for this one No more dist install/upgrade issues. Boring )

And I am going senile.

Instead of:

$ wget https://get.popcorntime.sh/build/Pop...inux-64.tar.xz -O popcorntime.tar.xz

I copy and pasted so I actually did:

$ $ wget https://get.popcorntime.sh/build/Pop...inux-64.tar.xz -O popcorntime.tar.xz

All good now.

Yeah, I know what you mean. Same here. I've been bored for a long time, running 14.04, just simply absolutely no problems to solve -- no challenge. In fact, I get so bored not having any problems with Kubuntu, that now and then I will break my booting setup so I have something to work on. Recently, I even managed to blow out my PCs firmware and had to re-flash it, which thankfully, gave me something to do and broke my boredom that comes with running a near-perfect Kubuntu OS.

Then obviously you bored folks need to re-install using Btrfs as the root filesystem!

The dividends are enormous!
