I am having a problem installing Maxthon on my Zorin os 9 system, it's a new install, since the second item I copied and pasted did not work, I did that option again and got the same result. Can someone help me, I've installed it by the terminal before and it worked fine.

Hi,

do you have a 64 Bit version of Zorin installed?, that might be the reason it won't install!.

Download the correct package if you haven't already done so and use "Gdebi" to install it (right click the package once downloaded, "Open with"), to install gdebi via the terminal, use the following command:

Code:
sudo apt-get install gdebi


Get a copy of the file from here (or a new download link):

You have some dependency issues as indicated by the installer:

1. Open Synaptic Package Manager [Menu | System Tools | Administration | Synaptic Package Manager]

2. In the tiny search box (top middle) enter:

Code:
libgtkhotkey1


;)

Keep us posted - if it is not available you may not be able to install Maxthon! :(
