I like picasa, it makes finding the right image from my collection of thousands easy. I didn’t realise Google had a debian repository with builds of their software ready to go. Thanks for sharing!Comment posted using

Thank you for this nice and quick howto.
This saved my day!
But most of the commands have to run as root. Maybe you can prepend a “sudo” in front of all apt commands.
Thank you anyways!Comment posted using
