I'll check on the Linux packages... I'm not sure why the GUI isn't showing up for you.
EDIT: Ah, I see. That exact link goes directly to the namecoin package rather than Peter's repo generally. I think you can get the GUI from here:
https://software.opensuse.org/download. ... mecoin-gui . Does that work for you?
Thanks for that. Installing and running that I find the logo flashes briefly and then I get:
namecoin
libpng warning: iCCP: Not recognizing known sRGB profile that has been edited

Hmm. After you run namecoin, is there anything interesting in ~/.namecoin/debug.log? Any chance you could try renaming your ~/.namecoin/ folder to see if maybe it's a corrupt profile?
Whenever I run "namecoin" I see in the log:
namecoin version 0.3.80
Default data directory /home/phil/.namecoin
Unable to bind to port 8334 on this computer. Namecoin is probably already running.
Freeing 0 entries in CMapBlockIndex...

Doing:
netstat -n -p -l | grep ':8834'
show nothing. Doing:
ps ax | grep namecoin
shows:

I tried opening port 8834 in iptables but it didn't make any difference.
I would prefer not to rename the .namecoin folder as this will start to recreate the blockchain from scratch and that took days before . .
Thanks,
Phil.
