Q: FlashGot does not seem to work on my Ubuntu Linux. I launch a download and nothing happens. What's going on?A: If you're using a recent Ubuntu or another distribution enabling AppArmor by default, you need to tweak your AppArmor configuration file in order to allow FlashGot to communicate with external download manager (something which is prevented by the default AppArmor policy).
To do that, you need to add a owner /tmp/flashgot.*/*.fgt ixr, line to your /etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.firefox file, anywhere between the curly braces which enclose most of the document.
If you don't know where to start yet, your can just copy & paste the following lines in a terminal: echo 'AA=/etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.firefox; grep flashgot $AA || \ (egrep -v "^}" $AA && echo " # FlashGot extension launcher scripts" && \ echo " owner /tmp/flashgot.*/*.fgt ixr," && echo "}") > \ /tmp/flashgot-aa && mv /tmp/flashgot-aa $AA && \ /etc/init.d/apparmor restart && echo "Done."' \ > /tmp/flashgot-aa.sh && sudo bash /tmp/flashgot-aa.sh
