    Hi all,

    Had to restore from USB my AA1 the other day. Once done I ran updates and amongst others noticed the LARGE download for the photo vierer. It installed ok but since then I could not auto-open images. In fact, the program itself will not launh. I've worked around it by associating images with another viewer but wonder what went wrong? I can find no way of removing it so that it can be re-installed either...

    It didn't really install ok. :lol: Sorry about the cheap shot, but I couldn't pass it up. Seriously, the install probably was messed up. I'd suggest uninstalling it and trying again.
    Code:
     sudo yum remove whatever-the-viewer-is-called
