Hello, RE http://www.howtoforge.com/avg_antivirus_ubuntu_feisty and AVG 7.5 GUI I installed ver 8.5 from http://free.avg.com/gb-en/download. But, the GUI seems to be gone. Does anyone know how to get the GUI to start for AVG 8.5? Thanks.
Open a terminal and become root: Code: sudo su Then run Code: updatedb locate avg What's the output of the last command?
Code: # locate avg /etc/avg.conf /etc/init.d/avgd /etc/rc0.d/K20avgd /etc/rc1.d/K20avgd /etc/rc2.d/S20avgd /etc/rc3.d/S20avgd /etc/rc4.d/S20avgd /etc/rc5.d/S20avgd /etc/rc6.d/K20avgd

Yes, I installed the .deb package named, avg85flx-r812-a3371.i386.deb. There were no errors during installation. I installed this on both Ubuntu 10.04 and Xubuntu 10.04. No GUI on either OS.
