Hello, every Karmic guys!
First congrats to Ubuntu, the Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala Alpha 4 was just released.
I think you’ve been waiting for a while, now Ubuntu Tweak is supporting Karmic!
Please help to test!
This morning (Chinese Time zone), I uploaded the package for Ubuntu 9.10 karmic only to the Ubuntu Tweak Testing PPA.
Now it is ready for testing.
If you are using Ubuntu 9.10, Please visit https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-tweak-testing/+archive/ppa
Add the following two lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list, then you can try the version for karmic.
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-tweak-testing/ppa/ubuntu karmic main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-tweak-testing/ppa/ubuntu karmic main
Please report any problem you meet, and remeber, if your desktop isn’t GNOME, DON”T report bug except the modules under “Applications”.
Thank you!

Thanks a lot. Downloading immediately!

Love your work, keep it up, greetings from Egypt
Can’t live without Ubuntu Tweak!!! I love it!
I get the same error as Johannes… What can it be?
im trying to, hope run well
Package cleaner appears not working. After selected the package to remove a progress window pop-up but there is no progress. Need to abort it.
(running version 0.4.9 downloaded few mins ago)
@Johannes and Martin
I’ve fixed this bug in the latest testing version.
@Giwex
This bug is fixed now.
I was playing with the 0.4.9 testing version on Karmic A5 64-bit last night (9-9) using VirtualBox. When I would go to the “Unlock” button to allow 3rd party repos, it wouldn’t pop up with a dialog box and say “An unknown Error has occurred” and it wouldn’t let me access anything.
I reinstalled the package and got the same thing.
@TeutonJon78
What about rebooting your ubuntu?
Confirmed, imposible to unlock, always appear the “unknown error” in karmic.
I’m using karmic 64-bit full updated.
@Jordi
Thanks! I know what’s the problem now. The final work version will release soon.
karmic,testing love it.
@TualatriX
I did reboot as well (it’s in a VM). But it looks like you found the problem already.
Authorization error in karmic 64 bits solved.
Thanks!!
(You’re a machines)
I cannot confirm, that the authorization error is solved. I have this unknown error even now. I’m using 9.10 Karmic with all updates. What can I do to use it anyway or to fix it?
Thanks in advance
Thank you for this great tool.It helped me a lot when I first started using ubuntu.It’s the first thing I install.
I am experiencing a problem with the “unlock” button.When I click o it nothing pops up.
I am using karmic koala beta with all the updates.

On Karmic with ubuntu-tweak 0.4.9.1 when I click unlock ..
Hello
Ubuntu Tweak is really a great software, I use it since ubuntu 8.04 and today I make a new Install of Karmic 64bit, of course I make ubuntu tweak fresh install.
Thank you for this software
(sorry my english is not very good, I’m french)
you can add this ppa to ubuntu-tweak
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/gilir/updates/ubuntu karmic main
It resolves the behavior for notify-osd. The problems for displaying the notification correctly like in jaunty.
