Even though I’ve installed dropbox in opensuse 13.1 (software.opensuse.org: Search),
I cannot run it by launching Applications/Recently installed/dropbox, nothing happened after I press Dropbox button.
Weird thing is that Process 1417 belongs to dropbox (I saw that in system activity), but I just cannot see the dropbox (both the Folder where my files are stored and the application itself).
Anyone can help ?
Hi,
did you install dropbox only or did you also install dropbox-servicemenu (I installed both and have the dropbox icon in kicker)?

Hi,
I looked around and found some stuff you might want to see. That said, I think you need to run;
dropbox start -i
I skimmed the documents below, for KDE, and I *think *that will run an installer, to set up dropbox accounts although I do not have it installed and have not used it.

:also may be important:
one click install nautilus
software.opensuse.org: Install package openSUSE:13.1 / nautilus-dropbox
Hey, you would not believe this:
<
Icy@linux-68vg:~> dropbox start -i
Dropbox isn’t running!
Dropbox is already running!
Icy@linux-68vg:~> sudo dropbox start -i
Starting Dropbox…
Dropbox is the easiest way to share and store your files online. Want to learn more? Head to https://www.dropbox.com/
In order to use Dropbox, you must download the proprietary daemon.
Note: python-gpgme is not installed, we will not be able to verify binary signatures. [y/n] y

hen I manually install python-gpgme by Yast, yast tells me that I should install KDouBan FM in the same time, KDouBanFM is a popular online music player, and it runs perfectly, which is a bonus surpriselol!.
But question is that nautilus-dropbox is for Gnome desktop environment, isn’t it? But I’m using KDE, so I installed dolphin-plugin.
Seems I cannot download it tonight!
Thanks bro!

For the record it looks to me like that is the component/language-extentsion (python-gpgme) which keeps your files secure.
You may want to investigate that further. That is, even if you installed it and its working well (dropbox).
But question is that nautilus-dropbox is for Gnome desktop environment, isn’t it? But I’m using KDE, so I installed dolphin-plugin.

Honestly I am not sure, but I think you are correct so that might be irrellevant. On the KDE directions I saw, though, I didn’t see a mention of dolphin-plugins.
