BionicPup64 no sound in Firefox (Solved)

[yuan]

hi,all

I like puppy linux very much. I have been using it since 2015. I recently switched the version to BionicPup64. I found some problems during the use. I hope to get your help.

1. Firefox 6.0.0.2esr has no sound when playing videos on the webpage.

2. The program of 'VidCutter-6.0.0-x64.AppImage' cannot run normally, the error is as follows:

Code: Select all

# /root/VidCutter-6.0.0-x64.AppImage
QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-root'
Segmentation fault

thanks!

Which Bionicpup?????
Bionicpup32 8.0?
Bionicpup64 8.0?

Firefox sound is a constant problem with Firefox!
It is a Firefox issue in all Puppy versions.
There are topics on the forum about fixing it!

@yuan - your Firefox issue is probably due to apulse missing.

hi @yuan

vidcutter is a problem package and you would be better off using something else such as kdenlive or openshot

hi,all

I created a startup script for the Firefox program and placed it in the /usr/bin/ directory. The web video can play sound.

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
apulse /opt/firefox/firefox "$@"

Thanks everyone for your help！
