No menu in Linux (Ubuntu)

[Rakete4]

There is no menu in the Ubuntu-Version (the one with "file, settings, help)", thus no debug console and no way to encrypt the wallet.

We've been reported this issue before - it's unfortunately an issue related to Qt and/or Unity (the default Ubuntu window manager). You can check this thread to find some workarounds - it's not ideal, but it's the best we can do in the current state.

I've looked a bit further, and it seems to be a recurring issue with Unity (even Bitcoin suffers the same issue since quite some time). It seems that the best solution is to wait for Qt to make appmenu-qt5 obsolete by implementing this feature in the core.

In the meantime, you can try to remove the appmenu-qt5 package if you can afford losing this feature, or to single-tap the Alt key with neucoin-qt in foreground to enter into the Unity menu-mode: you will then be able to type the name of the menu you wish to access.

The Unity menu-mode (Alt key) doesn’t seem to work either in the 1.1.0 release. The search bar comes-up but queries don't yield any items.

Edit: Alt key is working again in v1.1.1 (ubuntu amb64 binary)

Still happens on 0.13 when self-compiled.
