Easily install Songbird in Ubuntu/Gnome
The Psycho Cats weblog has written a tidy script that streamlines the entire installation of Songbird. I was having a difficult time finding a .deb version of Songbird, and since I was feeling too lazy to compile the application myself, the script Psycho Cats put together came in very nicely. The script does an awesome job installing Songbird and it even adds it your menu. Don’t forget that in order to see the application in the menu, you need to restart the menu. You can do this from the terminal with the following command:
killall gnome-panel
Here’s a little script to install the latest Songbird (which, right now, is version 0.2.5, so don’t expect much) on Ubuntu. If 0.2.5 is no longer the latest version, please let me know in this thread.
Installing Songbird
Step 1: Download the script to your desktop.Step 2: Paste these commands in the terminal:
cd ~/Desktop
chmod +x installsongbird.sh
./installsongbird.shThat’s it. Keep in mind that the launcher for Songbird will be the word Songbird with a capital S.
