Ubuntu – AnyDesk is not working

17.10ambiance

AnyDesk is not working and this is hampering my work. In log it's giving the following error message:

/usr/share/themes/Ambiance/gtk-2.0/apps/mate-panel.rc:30: error: invalid string constant "murrine-scrollbar", expected valid string constant

Best Answer

This error can be solved by changing line 30 (as indicated by the string mate-panel.rc:30 in your question) in /usr/share/themes/Ambiance/gtk-2.0/apps/mate-panel.rc as shown below. Open the terminal and type:

sudo -i  
cd /usr/share/themes/Ambiance/gtk-2.0/apps  
cp mate-panel.rc mate-panel.rc.bak # backup mate-panel.rc file before editing it  
nano mate-panel.rc

Now mate-panel will be open for editing in nano text editor. Scroll down with the ↓ key and change the following line which is line 30, the last line in my mate-panel.rc file: 

class "GtkScrollbar"              style "murrine-scrollbar"

by replacing the string "murrine-scrollbar" with "scrollbar" so that it looks like this: 

class "GtkScrollbar"              style "scrollbar"

Press the keyboard combination Ctrl+O and after that press Enter to save the changes in mate-panel.rc. Press the keyboard combination Ctrl+X to exit nano.

Logout in the terminal from root back to normal user. 

exit

Now you will be able to use without getting an error message that says: /usr/share/themes/Ambiance/gtk-2.0/apps/mate-panel.rc:30: error: invalid string constant "murrine-scrollbar", expected valid string constant
