Out of curiosity, Mike: what is the reason for that "phallic symbol" you are so pleased to spread all over the forum in every comment you do, but always after every username mention you make??

Hi! Is there a way to show my own remarks/comments/replies and such, as "offtopic" (like a visual help to alert others such reading is not totally related to the main thread)? I'm not talking about a way to mess the forum, posting anything in anywhere, whatsoever. I mean a different way to...

@pierro78 It doesn't matter what you try with Vivaldi, you just cannot change the download location......it won't let you. At least, I've never been able to..!

Hi Majdanov !

Hi steeve ! I've been using Ubuntu for years [..] Im more familiar with cli so I installed apt [...] Now is there issues to foresee if I start installing new packages with apt instead of PPM? Absolutely. In the worst scenario, you'll mess your system. In the best one, apt won't work :( For those who...

Hi mike! We'll have to try and find another lightweight 32-bit browser that actually works across the web [...] Good luck with that ;) Same problem I had when Opera 12.18 was discontinued. I've been searching for a solution for years and found none. Pale moon was the least worst evil. "And now ...

If started from the terminal, Oneko can only chase the mouse inside the terminal. No problem here. Oneko chases the mouse all over the screen, beyond terminal's borders :thumbup2: It worths explaining I didn't install the pet, just decompressed it and run "Oneko" directly from (lx)termina...

Did you try MyPhoneExplorer? It's free, runs on wine and syncs with your phone or tablet

Sometimes you might run a command without the "&" and only realize after that fact that you don't need or want to wait for it to finish. No problem -- just open another terminal session and go on your merry way. You could also press Ctrl-z (to suspend the process and recover the promp...

I've never come across a 64-bit release of DPup 'Stretch' [...] I may have overlooked it. Nope Mike, you didn't. Unfortunately, it doesn't exist. I searched for it throughly while using DpupStretch 7.5 32bit and overnight I was in need of a 64bit Dpup "Stretch" version. I found none (Stre...

Firefox and SeaMonkey require pulseaudio (or apulse) and Chrome (and clones) requires --no-sandbox option [...] I feel it is necessary to have some knowledge [...] I agree.

Exactly my impression. Prior to systemd, there were almost 30 alternatives to init, and none of them brought so much heated controversy. So systemd as an init alternative was never the problem

Wiak said in other thread" If you want to use Master pdf editor (which is a good choice) you really need the older 4.6.1 version (not one of the newer releases, since many functions do not function in the newer free version) Yeap, I'd come to that same conclusion. Best version is 4.xx. Version...

How do you like LFS so far? I've thought about giving it a try. Amazing! It blew my mind! :thumbup: BUT despite it's very well documented and explained, you MUST know beyond the basics since some commands can't be run "anywhere", so you must be understanding all the time what you are doin...

Hi WoodLark ! Stretch hung at "loading kernel modules" and would never finish loading. Both Busters loaded fine, but mouse clicks inside of the setup application were ignored. Mouse clicks on the desktop did work (I was able to bring up the menu). Yep, not every puppy is meant to be run in...
