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...

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...

Re: Quicktest EasyOS 2.3.2 -> DELL D630
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 ...

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...

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...
