What about if I just install chardet?

Do I want python-chardet_2.0.1 or python3-chardet_2.2.1-2?

I suggest you update PPM data base before you try again. If you have not done this recently, there is a chance the repositories have changed and the data base does not know this. I ran the update, restarted PPM, uninstalled python-pip, restarted PPM, installed python-pip. Same python-chardet error....

OK, for some reason everything installed except Python PIP ... sigh.

I reinstalled it then ran "pip install quisk" from the default Console ... and this is the result.

I followed the instructions and though PPM did.

I guess I may have to run the install again.

When I get home from a youth gathering with our son ...

Sure appreciate the assist! Your instructions, below, went smoothly with no errors until the "pip install quisk" stage where I received an error message that bash doesn't recognize "pip". I'm guessing it's part of the devx SFS and have that set to install at boot-up. What might b...

I haven't had time to get on the air for a while but miss listening in the background. My primary transceiver needs service - the SDR would fill the listening gap. I deleted my post on the Lighthouse thread for that reason. The device is a Softrock Ensemble RX II. http://blog.dale.id.au/softrock-rx-...

Boot from DVD ISO TahrPup64 6.0.5 on a Dell Latitude laptop - looks terrific! It appears that Python is installed by default. I need Quisk 4.0.3 and only v. 3.6.x shows up in PPM for the Ubuntu Trusty repository. (I need it to interface with a SDR (software defined radio receiver located in a USB-co...

Please disregard ... since Quisk appears to be native to Ubuntu I'll try TahrPup64 first.

OK, got it ...

What, please, is the purpose of the 5-JL_604.sfs?

EDIT: Oh, wait, I jumped back to Page 1 on a whim & found this:

5-JL64_604.sfs desktop enhancements + qt-4.8.7 (like lhp-503g)

So it's an optional add-on?

Thanks.

Sofia, Bulgaria - long trip even electronically.

I don't want to distract you from the important stuff - I'll keep trying on FilePup.

Plenty of other projects to occupy me meanwhile ...

Tried 604.5 three times, first stalled 25 M, second 72 M, this time 424 M - is there a mirror I could try instead?

Thanks.

I need the drivers for a Brother MFC-J450DW I tried printer setup but it can't find the drivers. I downloaded and uncompressed this installer from the Brother Support site http://support.brother.com/g/b/downloadlist.aspx?c=us&lang=en&prod=mfcj450dw_us&os=128 linux-brprinter-installer-2.0...

Cool! Do I need CUPS and System config printer or just the latter? What's the difference between the two versions of Palemoon? I'm guessing the LibreOffice 4.0.3... is 4.0.3.3 (I already have that)? I probably need Firefox for a few challenging sites, also (sadly) Flash ... dreaming of the day we ar...

I tried Refresh and I tried sending this link

... to another computer - same result.

The only Seamonkey that shows is 2.33...

I cannot explain why.

Dry Falls wrote:hi edoc. Which seamonkey are you using? v2.35 is much improved in that regard over earlier versions. I'm a bit surprised to hear this. Are you using the sfs addon tailored for JL64 (Seamonkey-2.35-x86_64.sfs @ gdrive)?

I still only see v. 2.33 on gdrive.

Third try - today - worked!

Now to find time in-between interruptions to give it a try ...

Cool to see the new versions!

Tried to download twice & failed twice, first time at 20MB second at 17MB.

Is there a trick?

Thanks ...

I had Seamonkey-2.33_x86_64-1.sfs I'll try the newer version. I need to clean out the old clutter in /mnt/home/. linuz.gx & initrd.xz to /mnt/home/ jl64-603.sfs to /mnt/home/jl64/ (I presume I can keep all of the SFS files there or do some or all of the others have to be in /mnt/home/ ? jl64save...

Oh, BTW, in a few minutes I'll be looking over the shoulder of our 20yr old son as he starts this online Linux course: https://training.linuxfoundation.org/linux-courses/essentials-of-system-administration/outline Maybe I will learn, and remember, enough to solve more problems with fewer questions? ...

I made the changes to the copies of grub.cfg and isolinux.cfg on my HDD, located in /mnt/home/jl64/ I'm not certain how to tell if the OS is running from my Frugal install on the HDD (/mnt/home/jl64/) or from the copy that was installed on the USB boot stick (JL64_LIVE) by Lighthouse Installer.
