Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Chromium & Flash

[Jaeic Lee]

That's how it is for me too, I just have to install the plugin and chromium
picks it up automatically.

[Lubuntu-desktop] lubuntu programs

[神癒礁湖 · Rafael Laguna]

Two doubts:

Will Catfish included in the next release?

And will be the language issue solved? Some novell users found this
annoying and difficult.

Thank you.

Unless I’m missing something, all I did was ensure the Partner
Repository was enabled and did an 'apt-get adobe-flashplugin'. Start
Chromium and flash functions OK.  This was on a clean Lucid install.

Yes, I know that, Richard. Thought I add more reading material for you.
And yes, I was very impressed with grub2. The objections to it when it 
was first introduced was high, but I understand the reactions as the 
documentation for it was almost non-existent. And menu.lst is far far 
easier to modify and still is.




I do remember LILO - never did get it to work reliably myself. My first try at 
Linux wasn't successful because of it as I recall and I had to use Windows at 
the time because of a course I was taking. As a result I didn't properly adopt 
Linux until about 3 years ago. Now you wont get me away from it - except at 
work where I have no choice cos everything is flaming Microsoft! When I get my 
own company running it will all be Linux and no Windows in sight thankyou!

Rich


The reason I mentioned LILO is that it is the major reason at that time 
why people trying out linux just gave up. I too almost invariably end up 
with a blinking cursor on a dark screen for any new installation.
With grub-legacy, it is much better but with systems with more than 1 
hard disk, it's usually a guessing game when modifying the menu.lst to 
try to boot. That's why people need to modify it continually. And when 
booting to external disk, it is always (hd0,1) and of course, that is in 
grub-speak, the first partition of the hard disk, never the external, 
and will not boot unless the menu.lst gets modified again.




Just glad to talk to someone who understands.

If for some reason Chromium doesn't pick up the copy of the plugin in
the mozilla directory, maybe making a symbolic link would be a better
option?  That way any updates would automatically be applied to
Chromium's version, and there's less disk wasted?  --Bob

While this sounds like a great idea, for a DVD release, aimed at users with a 
reasonable bit of knowledge.  I don’t think it is ideal for Lubuntu, with it’s 
stated aim of working on older, low resource machines.  Having seen the 
confusion the Windows browser chooser causes, giving that many options will 
only confuse many users, as they have no idea what the differences are between 
the options.  Most windows users I see installing anything always choose the 
default option.
Maybe the answer is, to give two options:

1. Lubuntu as it stands.
2. The desktop only, with no applications.

Remember, KISS

Richard, some of the reasoning to use grub2 can be found at 
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2

Personally, and on top of these reasons, my take on it is
o grub-legacy has not been maintained for a long time  (5 years?) 
   note others try to fill the void by super grub, etc.
o the rescue mode to help boot  when parameters are wrong
o the setting to (grub) boot by uuid instead of (hd0,x) and /dev/sdax
   where it will always be wrong with multiple disks
o When booting from external disk, the partition will always be (hd0,1)
   regardless of actual allocation and grub-legacy will fail
o modular construct where new innovations/additions need not require
   the whole grub system be rebuilt
o ability to boot iso direct by looping, (useful to test alpha's
   without installing to hard disk) and other utility disks.
o ability to handle raid and lvm, despite initial problems,
   (grub-legacy and definitely lilo could not.)

Richard, even at the introduction of grub2, it is far far superior to
grub-legacy, and the only fault is the lack of documentation to assist
users. Also many people are already familiar with grub-legacy and the
ease to modify menu.lst makes using grub2 a harder task. It is always
easier to learn a new task than to unlearn an old one.

Since you mentioned you are not a newbie, can you remember using
LILO?   ;)  [roaring laughter]  LOL

Take care. Regards - Goh Lip

As Goh Lip said in one of his posts on this subject: Alpha versions are 
not for newbies. Exactly why Canonical are shipping Grub 2 when they 
know it isn't a full release I don't personally know. They have their 
reasons i guess. I haven't had any issues myself with Grub but then I'm 
not a newbie. I would be hesitant, however, to point a newbie at a 
system where there is a chance it will break. They sure as hell wont 
come back to *nix if it does.
I think that since there are issues with Grub it would be a good idea to 
move away from it and use something which doesn't have issues.  Moaning 
at the LUbuntu team does no-one any good, and it really annoys me when 
people complain about non-production versions of software "breaking" - 
they haven't broken they have bugs which is why they're in Alpha / Beta 
releases! If you can't fix it you shouldn't have been using it - simple huh?

Hi Goh,

Grub is in a mess, and has been for a while. When it works, it
works well, when it fails, it fails completely. This has bubbled
along from 9.10 to 10.04 and is becoming a larger issue for 10.10

As per grub / burg and the really big mess that has been made,
along with people who help out on the forum area expressing their
frustrations, can I suggest you have a read of
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1516153 I have not seen
the guys and galz on the testing area having such a heated
discussion, it is quite evident that there is a *major* problem
that needs addressing.

I have only read up on that thread today, Kansassnoob is one who I
rely on for grub issues, if he is exclaiming his in-ability to
support it, then I suggest you read up all you can as he is one of
those I rely on when the tutorials do not work.

I do not think it is a bug and I think it is a more
fundamental issue of where he puts his grub. But I don't like
his tone of calling the developers stupid when he himself is
stupid. And if he continues in this manner, I would be
reluctant to help him further.


So, you best have read on there, you will see that they have been
called far worse by people who actually have to deal with the fall
out.

There are always two sides to a coin, it pays to take the time to
see why someone is annoyed, in this case they have every reason to
be so. But it is not a lubuntu fault, it is a grub fault which
means all ubuntu shares it, and from the dev himself, so does debian.
