Hi foxpup, In my experience, running new2dir make install will always do 2 things, create the new dir (from which you can make the .pet) and also install into system. This is because you are running make install . Not sure if it is possible to run new2dir on its own as I have never tried. Normally I...

Latest VLC 3.0.11 compiled from source in BionicPup32 Mostly just built against what is already in the Pup Had to include Qt5 libs for the GUI of course - this version no longer accepts Qt4 I had to disable schroedinger and vaapi to avoid errors It didn't like lua 5.3 for some reason, so I used lua ...

You will need to make sure you are launching firefox with the apulse command at the front as various posts above have explained. If you are doing this it will work. It may be that the older apulse just overwrites pulseaudio in which case it may be easier to use for firefox, but it creates problems f...

Google-earth-pro stable current 64bit desktop version reports itself as 7.3.3.7721 Works in Bionic64 In my nouveau test machine I have to use boot parameter nouveau.noaccel=1 otherwise it does not display properly (top left postage stamp effect). I did a slight repack as .pet and .sfs including gett...

I have 32bit version of latest release 0.1.13 here:- http://smokey01.com/OscarTalks/apulse-0.1.13-i686-wz.pet download and click on it to install However, you will encounter other problems in Slacko 5.7 if trying to use a very recent Firefox. As mentioned in your other thread, there will be symbol e...

BCRYPT The program bcrypt (Menu -> Personal -> "Bcrypt file encryption") has not been working for a long time. I don't know if this is still useful in EasyOS I think this is because a weakness/vulnerability in bcrypt was reported as a bug and Debian patched it to disable encryption but le...

Hello jafa, The fix is to use apulse with its libs in a sub-directory, but this introduces the requirement to ensure that any program (such as Firefox) which works via apulse is being launched via the apulse wrapper. The apulse package has libs which have the same names as standard pulse audio libs,...

BionicPup32 +21 fresh boot, created save-folder, rebooted, installed Firefox 77.0.1 from Menu>Internet>Get Web Browser. Posting from it now and it DOES have sound. Sound problem may be as a result of the user having earlier installed a package which contains the libpulse pulse audio libs which could...

Some additional information about updated source code for gnome-mplayer which may be of general interest. Development by the main person who was doing it stopped at version 1.0.9 a few years ago, but it was forked by wdlkmpx with the github project name of gtk-mplayer. Releases of this are found in ...

Minor thing, the download link buttons for 32bit kernel-sources and kernel-headers don't work. Looks like they have just "pup" instead of "lxpup" in the name. I was still able to navigate and find them.

Hello ozboomer Theoretically the suggested fix should be just a case of amending the path to:- export GIO_EXTRA_MODULES=/usr/lib/gio/modules and I have seen this work in other cases. However I tested in 32bit Slacko 6.3.2 and it does not work with gnome-mplayer for some reason. Earlier versions of g...

What do you mean when you say it is inaccessible or you can't make it work?
You have a file named clickclock?
You want to execute (run) it?
You want to change the ownership of it?

Quick test in 32bit TahrPup 6.0.5 fresh virgin boot Installed Palemoon 28.10.0 by downloading tarball, delete /opt/palemoon folder and contents, extract new tarball into /opt to replace the old deleted one. Did TahrPup updates via QuickPet (don't think this helps this issue, but you should do it any...

Type about:config into the address bar and press enter.
Don't worry about any warnings.
It is a big long list of all the settings, so use the search at the top of that page to find the one I mentioned.

One thing you can try which might help to get more videos to play In Palemoon in about:config Search for media.libavcodec.allow-obsolete Set the value to true This should allow Palemoon to make use of the codecs in libavcodec which it would otherwise reject (if the value is set to "false")...

I tried Peasydisk Version 5.1 and received same results as above. Added genisoimage with petget and peasydisk works fine. Please examine this further. I was wondering about suggesting a symlink but then I took a glance in my DpupStretch and I see that it has this little script as /usr/bin/genisoima...

If the hardware is old it may not be powerful enough for reliable playback. What are the main specifications? Has apulse been installed? How did you install firefox and where is the main firefox directory located in the file system? You may need to use the full path to the firefox executable eg apul...

OpenVPN throws a warning if the passfile has write permissions because it regards it as a security vulnerability. I think it still works and you may not see any warning unless you are looking at it in terminal. Running as root you can still change the login details anyway in fact. Yes, the freevpn.m...

@phredo Not sure if there is a way to put the username and password directly in the .ovpn file. What you could do is create another passfile just for Proton. For example /etc/vpn-onoff/protonpass Best if this file does not have any write permissions. Put your Proton login details in that. Then set a...
