Bitcoin GUI does not shows up when started in Ubuntu 11.04. I upgraded Ubuntu installed in my laptop from 10.10 to 11.04. On starting Bitcoin GUI by running script, it did not start though the backend folders .bitcoin was created on home folder. So, searching the internet get me to quick work around. The problem seems to be related to new UI update in Ubuntu but somehow seems to be related to Bitcoin itself. So, here is a fix. Go to http://bitcoin.bluematt.me/bitcoin-nightly/ubuntu-11.04/ and download the appropriate version (32 or 64 bit). On downloading, just right click on file and change its permission to executable. Now, you are ready to run it by double click as any other program or on command line using ./bitcoin.
