Hi

I am getting back to Julia after years of non-usage. I’ve tried to install JuliaPro on my Linux Mint 19.1 (ie, a flavor of Ubuntu 18.04) desktop using the following steps:

- Using root account:
  - Created: sudo /usr/lib/julia
  - Set permissions: sudo chmod a+wrx /usr/lib/julia

- Using my default user:
  - Succesfully installed juliapro as indicated in the quick start guide: ./JuliaPro-1.2.0.1.sh /usr/lib/julia

Atom seems to open after issuing: /usr/lib/julia/JuliaPro-1.2.0-1/Launch\_JuliaPro but the interface I see is completely different from the ones illustrated in the quick guide and it does not seem to contain any julia-specific menu items.

 ![atom](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/julialang/original/3X/9/6/96a801f1b33cba9e33ccbae0b3b2e1469aaa0f9d.png)

Moreover, error messages are reported in the shell:  
$ ./Launch\_JuliaPro  
bash: cannot set terminal process group (-1): Inappropriate ioctl for device  
bash: no job control in this shell  
Gtk-Message: 08:26:39.248: GtkDialog mapped without a transient parent. This is discouraged.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Can you please compare the contents between following folders

```julia
/usr/lib/julia/JuliaPro-1.2.0-1/JuliaPro-Juno-1.2.0-1/julia_atom_1.2.0-1

```

```julia
$HOME/.julia_atom_1.2.0-1

```

They should be exactly the same, if they are not, then please copy the contents of `/usr/lib/julia/JuliaPro-1.2.0-1/JuliaPro-Juno-1.2.0-1/julia_atom_1.2.0-1` onto `$HOME/.julia_atom_1.2.0-1` , this should solve the issue.

Just a FYI:- You don’t need to install JuliaPro with root privileges, you can install JuliaPro as a non-admin user too.
