[Ethereum] How to find the `chaindata` folder

Mist has the data directory hard coded.

If you want to run geth directly, you can use --datadir. You might also use a symbolic link.

Not much more to say on this other than submit an issue on the Mist project if you'd like to see this changed.

Missing dependencies?

First of all try installing meteorjs and electron. These dependencies should be included in the binaries but some operating systems behave weird.

Is your GPU blacklisted?

Try to run mist or ethereum-wallet with the --ignore-gpu-blacklist flag. This might cause the client to crash. But if it does not crash, you probably run a working wallet by now.

Issues with links to blank pages?

Use this script to fix all wallet addresses to lower case.

// Open the wallet console: Menu -> Develop -> Toggle console ...
// Run the following script

_.each(Wallets.find().fetch(), function(item){
    if(item.address)
        Wallets.update(item._id, {$set: {address: item.address.toLowerCase()}}); 
});
_.each(CustomContracts.find().fetch(), function(item){
    if(item.address)
        CustomContracts.update(item._id, {$set: {address: item.address.toLowerCase()}}); 
});
_.each(Tokens.find().fetch(), function(item){
    if(item.address)
        Tokens.update(item._id, {$set: {address: item.address.toLowerCase()}}); 
});

This changes all your wallet addresses internally back to lowercase (it was introduced that by accident).
