How to start Bitdefender?

[jojopara]

Hello,

I know AV is unnecessary for Linux. I have installed Bitdefender from AUR, but can’t find a way to start it. Please, help.

According to the PKGBUILD file, you can run bdgui in a terminal window to launch the application.

The package also installs a .desktop file called bdgui.desktop, which means that you should be able to search it in your menu in order to launch it from there.

bdgui gives:
(bdgui:9855): Gtk-WARNING **: 11:38:43.384: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: “murrine”,
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

There is noting in the menu.

For AV I recommend you try NOD32 for Linux. It’s in the AUR. It can run in the background scanning which most of AV for Linux can’t.
