[Qgis-user] file ecw and mrsid in ubuntu doesn't work

[Giovanni Manghi]

It works fine here, Ubuntu 10.04, qgis 1.7 from the ubuntugis
repository.

Please launch qgis from the terminal and copy/paste here the error
message.

If you can share a sample of your data so we can test if it depends on
data rather than the program/libraries.

cheers
