Can I stop all the "Flipping & Flopping" on FoxNews ?

Fox webpages will continue to flip-flop, code changed as they see fit,
and there is very little to stop it if you wish to read Fox News or
other Fox websites.

Try avoiding Fox Crap! There are options. There are several hosts on
Fox with major credibility, and they are being setup to be trashed,
soon. Fox controls what you see, and how you see it. Indoctrination!

Avoid the 49cent hamburger that makes you sick!

Recent pubs expose the true owner, politics, and power of Fox. It is
part of the MSM, the cabal if you wish, the global politics, not free
press reporting. Part of the CNN(Counterfeit News Network) global
group of power brokers, indirectly. They use you every time you visit
their website. Then they track you and use you later.

To You, The Best of luck in deciphering this mess! And keep me

Re: What happens next?

Again I ask, is Seamonkey Ubiquitous like Firefox?  No.

Is Seamonkey offered, exposed, shown to users as an option when they
view Linux Package alternatives in the software/application package
repo/kiosk after the install process?  Seldom it seems.

(Ignorant means lack of knowing!, Not Stupid Nor Dumb!)


I don't think that SeaMonkey is suitable for every user. The trend is to dumb
down software and unless the interface is simple and the program does
everything right you would just be flooded with support tickets. Looking
aorund I see people even more helpless than 20 years before when they have a
problem. So SM will probably stay as a niche browser for power usewrs.


I am sure you are correct about Seamonkey not being for everybody! No
application is for everybody! That is the beauty of Linux compared to
MS Windows, and all the possible applications we have access to in
Linux, more often than not.

Yet Seamonkey is hidden to most everybody loading Ubuntu - the prime
Linux spearhead for years now, and others like Mint, Debian, Fedora,
..., and recently I now see SUSE is coming up to the top ten installed
packages(I thank the post for the info; from another thread fork).

I missed reviewing SUSE recently as I did not like it 5-6 years ago,
and so did not find it had Seamonkey in the repo/kiosk. I thank the
other poster here for enlightening me on SUSE, I missed it. Yet the
issue remains; Seamonkey is still basically hidden.

Seamonkey is far easier to use than Firefox and Thunderbird, from my
experience, and from other People I correspond with. Both FF and TB
cause me to stumble, it's irritating. Seamonkey is more natural
somehow, easier to use, and People I know agree. It is far more
capable too. Firefox is missing too much of what SM offers.

One guy I know tossed his Acer Aspire 5050 AMD Turion 64 computer in
the trash over FF and webmail pages, refused to even look further. I
use it now - this is it talking to you with Ubuntu Mate 18.04 LTS and
Seamonkey 2.49.5! The guy now uses an LG Tracfone for everything, his
wife suffers an MS Windows mess she hates. So agitated were they I
was unable to get them to even look at Linux nor anything else. Damage
done. They are now Dvoid Google-Android users - mostly. Including
their Android TV system via cable; a Walmart offering.


If money would really help Seamonkey, we all need to donate as best we
can. But only to Seamonkey, not to Mozilla nor Firefox. Seamonkey
needs support, developers, liberated.



Monkey is needed to pay the bills for azure builders and the other servers.
More needed are people dedicated to help and able to work it out with minimal
guiding.

Thanks for reminding me, I was asleep, no coffee for weeks.

Though I had a useragent override for youtube installed via
about:config since my previous laptop, I used/copied the profile from
the old 32bit laptop I decommissioned. I had not updated it for the
X86-64 Acer nor w-Seamonkey 2.49.5. And it did not include the Firefox
entry for compatibility either.

Once updated for the 64bit laptop and 2.49.5, youtube still complained
until I added Firefox/52.0 compatibility. So youtube still works under
the older Firefox/52.0 ; I will keep Firefox/62.0 in mind for future
need though. Thanks.

Still I don't like needing that, I would prefer Seamonkey to be more
respected and accepted. If only it could be loaded as an option in
many repositories/kiosks associated with Linux distributions, like
Firefox and other browsers are. Even if an older version, a user could
find it, install it, update it after installing the distro. Put it in
users face anyway, somehow. The Play Apps Store routine works.

To do all that is work. I know the developers are shorthanded,
overloaded, and I am not in any situation to help that way.

That might help, but not the primary issue. Many People are not
knowledgeable enough to download nor install Seamonkey, and are lazy
anyway. Microsoft or some Linux irrelevant. The Apps play store
routine is easier for them.

With all due respect for the developers of Seamonkey, and I truly
appreciate their work, especially since I have not needed to replace a
profile now for 3 years, Seamonkey will not be more widely known of,
installed, and used until it is easier for more People to learn of it,
locate it in a repository/kiosk, press an install button, and use it.

Seamonkey exists not in any Ubuntu, Debian, nor Red Hat/Fedora
repository I checked out, nor any other Linux package. I find it at
SeamonkeyProject.org, and Sourceforge via Ubuntuzilla:
https://sourceforge.net/p/ubuntuzilla/wiki/Main_Page/

Few People can handle the download, install, setup requirements as it
is, even if they find it at the SeamonkeyProject, or Sourceforge. Few
People can handle the terminal. And they like the Android/Apple play
store concept on their fone.

Many People are ditching a computer and just use a tablet or large
fone for everything. Is Seamonkey available for a fone like Firefox
is, or tablet? No.

I hate and don't trust that Dvoid junk so I keep Linux and Seamonkey
on a laptop.

v2.49.5 seems to be working great on an old Acer Aspire 5050 w-AMD
Turion 64 I acquired; I loaded it with several Ubuntu packages, and a
Fedora Mate, until I settled on Ubuntu Mate 18.04 LTS for the AMD
X86_64, so far User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:52.0)
Gecko/20100101 SeaMonkey/2.49.5; Though Youtube is now flashing me
that "We'll stop supporting this browser soon. For the best experience
please update your browser." I play with the user-agent, no fix yet.

Is Seamonkey found someplace that I am not aware of?

It should be as readily available as Firefox and others, more so in my
mind - being the greater browser it is. I don't like and won't use
Firefox for several reasons; though I am playing around with the fork
to Pale Moon, it is too limiting for me, but better than Firefox for
sure. And I avoid anything Microsoft or Google. I hope nothing from
either of those thieving junk shops is found in Seamonkey!

There is a good video available to compare 3 main browsers, Seamonkey
is one of them; if anyone is interested:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRKbz3nQ7mo

There seems to be other videos there too, but I have not seen them
yet.

Seamonkey is not the problem, and DuckDuckGo.com helps; But;

Any form of Google is messed up for decades now, not reliable or safe

compliance with the world standard RFC on IMAP.

It was never compliant with IMAP created by Mark Crispin at Stanford
nor afterwords as it evolved; and Mark informed everybody of that on
the UWash Pine/Alpine list circa 2010 after trying to help Google
correct their servers. Google basically laughed at Mark, ignored him.
I emailed with that list for years, and several times with Mark. He
was open with his exposure of Google and Microsoft proprietary
marketing manners. We lost Mark circa late 2013 at an early age. his
writings must still exist someplace, UWash Alpine email client list
archives maybe.

Google is proprietary on purpose as Google wants it to be to control
and command users, by teasing users, baiting users for their profit,
to use GoogleSpyWare. Or punishes them for not using GoogleSpyWare.
Enjoy it.

Nothing from Google is safe, certainly not on any Android unit. All

remember a Forbes financial publication!

I avoid all financial and email use on this DVoid Nokia fone I carry.

If you access Google webpages, assets, without GoogleSpyWare - don't
expect it to work correctly - on purpose. Use GoogleSpyWare when you
want to access any Google web asset or Google quasi-webpage.

What happened to the generic RFC standard inet and email? Linux OS,
Seamonkey, and Alpine email client type software exists for a reason.
It can avoid outside proprietary control of an inet experience.

Am I wrong, let me have it! But Seamonkey ain't the problem for

I do suffer any webpage like tinyhouselistings.com that uses Google

GMA was the last Intel GPU generation before Intel moved the GPU from the
Northbridge to the CPU die. Those since then have proven quite reliable with
Linux, and with very respectable performance, not infrequently on par with 
higher
cost discrete GPUs from NVidia and AMD.

Don't let yourself get confused with generations. The numbers for the chipsets 
and
CPUs are different from those for the GPUs. I use
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_graphics_processing_units for 
keeping
things straight.

If you're looking for good value, look for any of the off-lease "refurbs" made
since around 2010. I have 3 Dell Optiplex 760 and 780 models with the last of 
the
GMAs (Gen4) that were the first to do x264 video playback in hardware, very 
decent
compared to early GMAs like the 950, but newer custom builts from 2013 (Haswell 
by
MSI) and 2018 (Kaby Lake by Asus & Gigabyte) that are considerably better. Best
long term value is probably in the 3-4 years old range, Broadwell/Gen8.

Both Intel and AMD are well supported by free drivers, while NVidia continues to
withhold specifications, which forces FOSS driver writers to reverse engineer,
which in turn forces many of its Linux users to use its proprietary drivers that
are often difficult to keep in sync with kernel upgrades.


This is where real working solutions are found; user forums providing
ref from users of hardware, OSs, and application software like
Seamonkey. And what works is important, yet what does not work is
important too; what needs avoided, what does not mix. Thanks to all
who donate to this info.

You could also try a later and actually in-support Ubuntu LTS, but if not, as
you already broke the system, you could try upgrading 12.04.5 with components
from Debian Jessie as I suggested.

Let's hope that the reported libc6>=2.17 dependency is the only one that's
stopping SM 2.49.5 from installing and not just the first one ...

Start at <https://packages.debian.org/jessie/libc6>
You'll need
<http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/glibc/libc6_2.19-18+deb8u10_i386.deb>

Then its dependencies
<https://packages.debian.org/jessie/libgcc1>

Then its dependencies
<https://packages.debian.org/jessie/multiarch-support>
<https://packages.debian.org/jessie/gcc-4.9-base>

And apparently that's all. You'll need to install these bottom-up using the
GUI (GDebi) or all at once using dpkg at the command line.

This could all go wrong when one of those 4 package versions turns out to be
incompatible with some other package that's installed in your Precise system.
You'd then have to upgrade each such package as well. In that case you
quickly get to a point where you might do better to try another distro (ie
not Ubuntu) altogether. But as it's only a .04 upgrade there's a fair chance
of success.

Certainly I managed to install it on a Trusty system though I may

have

manually updated the libc6 package to get other packages running.

libc6-2.19

is the installation default.

Supposing OP has a good reason not to upgrade to a supported Ubuntu

LTS

(Xenial or later), it might be possible to add lib6-2.19 from Debian

Jesse,

although it will most likely lead to a maze of twisty dependencies,

all

alike, probably more trouble than actually upgrading the OS.

Including what rob  writes via separate
thread link, I appreciate all your replies, and think I understand all
you folks write.

The problem is then with the older Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS. Yet upgrade to
14.04 LTS crashed this computer, mainly I suppose due to graphics,
scripts. Probably the desktop and X-Window system, despite my attempt
to downgrade it to the simple version. I recovered only with
reinstalling Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS. No updates on that of course for
years, not even the core of Debian Linux.

I just keep the applications updated as best I can, like with
Seamonkey, and this past year trying to use Pale Moon - which seems to
work fine - but limited more like Firefox. I appreciate Seamonkey for
browser.

This old Lenovo R60e w-Celeron needs replaced, but that project
still delayed for now. Moving.

So I am stuck using v2.49.4 for now. Unless a patch job can be made by
me via terminal. Anybody got a file I should try, let me know.

Ubuntuzilla install of Seamonkey 2.49.5 missing file

2019-10-07 Thread MRoss-GMX

Ubuntuzilla install of Seamonkey 2.49.5 missing file

But a manual install, download - copy to - extract, does no better;
it just does not work. So either way it don't work.

Computer running Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS precise Linux. Seamonkey 2.49.4
works fine for quite a while now. No real hangups.

I downloaded:
https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/seamonkey/releases/2.49.5/linux-i686/en-US/seamonkey-2.49.5.tar.bz2

Extracted the download to a proper directory, and tried to launch it
as always. It fails to launch without any display of why.

I am not trying to maintain or run two different versions either. And
the x86 issue always worked for past versions.

So I tried using the apt-get install for seamonkey(Sourceforge
Ubuntuzilla), and all seems well until attempting to start seamonkey,
which returns: /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.17' not
found (required by seamonkey);
and I cannot find the file to copy/install via terminal.

Ideas?

I am having the same issue all this time later! On both mobile and laptop.

What is that about? Would a webpage block for that?
