Regarding Browser Firefoy and high Ram.
ps_mem.py one tab open to a blank page shows309.1 MiB + 81.7 MiB = 390.7 MiB firefox-esr (7)
355.8 MiB + 92.3 MiB = 448.2 MiB librewolf (7)
237.1 MiB + 152.3 MiB = 389.4 MiB chrome (10)Very little difference between a “cleaned up” FF ESR and
UngoogledChromium. Both have U Block Origin and MetaGer
search installed. Probably LibreWolf somewhat higher RAM
usage could be quickly reduced by applying more changes
in about:config to mach ESR.- This reply was modified 2 months, 2 weeks ago by Xunzi_23.
In reply to: Update UngoogledChromium Urgent
andyprough
As with googlechrome and all other variants the previous version
was, buggy and according to google easily and actively exploited.Isn’t this pretty much a constant state for chrome/chromium? I think that the us government’s cyber security site lists around 37 zero day exploits for chrome/chromium just since 2018. It’s not like Firefox, where the code is fairly tightly planned and designed and controlled. Last time I looked, chromium had over 14,000 bug reports that had never even been triaged by anyone. It seems to be just a giant mess, that probably no one has ever fully mastered.

Firefox almost 1Gb memory footprint?
With careful configuration of Chrome or Chromium (such as ungoogled one) seems more memory frugal. Not scientific comparison, just practical experience:

Live antiX Boot Options (Previously posted by Xecure):
https://antixlinuxfan.miraheze.org/wiki/Table_of_antiX_Boot_ParametersIn reply to: antiX-23-alpha1-runit-full (64bit) for testing
calciumsodium
Some more tests with sound:
I am running alpha1 test system with alsa only using the 6.1 kernel.
Sounds from browsers like firefox-esr and google-chrome sound great.
Sounds from mpv not as good, using the same ytdlautoformat.lua configuration file that I had used in my antiX21 systems.
After some experimentation, I added the line
volume_max=200to my ~/.config/mpv/scripts/ytdlautoformat.lua configuration file.
Now sounds from mpv sound great, similar to that of using the browsers.
Note that this sound increase is sharp and crisp! This is unlike when you have 150% sound amplification using pulseaudio where there are lots of sound distortions.
Hope this is useful to those that use mpv in antiX.

@BobC @Robin Thanks for thoughts and input.
@Xunzi_23 Thanks for response.
I’ll keep trying. I have seen other posts in the forum using google search method. I’ll re-read these more closely.
@BobC if this is off topic and needs separate thread, please move or instruct me to start a new thread (or tell me to stop whining :)).My specific need is to run a web browser (currently firefox-esr) larger than screen so I can use my whole screen for reading a book’s page’s contents (i.e. text on page fills screen and book edges and browser borders etc are off screen) on ‘archive dot org’. I’m an avid reader of all sorts of subjects and I use this site daily.
I achieve this manually, fairly quickly by Alt-space M, to move with mouse and arrow keys, and then Alt-space S, to resize with arrow keys (+shift), and the Alt-space M again to position so page contents just fill screen height. It can take some fine adjustments to get there, but then I read for about an hour, just page flipping with no other interaction.
I’ve been trying with xdotool and wmctrl using the window geometry acquired as above with very limited success. Note the geometry is also captured in the winoptions file by the script in this thread.
When I ran an xfce distro this worked flawlessly with wmctrl.
In icewm (which I really like for keyboard shorcuts and speed) I get limited success. Sometimes I get the size, but getting the window edges off screen is a challenge. Sometimes I can’t manually move a window beyond screen edge. I am not fully understanding what restricts and frees window movement in icewm yet. Something to do with how I last resized the window I think.The following is from my winoptions file.
Navigator.Firefox-esrgeometry: 1338×1257+0+-363
Navigator.Firefox-esrlayer: Normal
rox.Roxgeometry: 600×184+299+178
rox.Roxlayer: Normal
rox.Roxworkspace: 0
roxterm.Roxtermgeometry: 557×351+299+82
roxterm.Roxtermlayer: Normal
roxterm.Roxtermworkspace: 0
leafpad.Leafpadgeometry: 551×268+309+279
leafpad.Leafpadlayer: Normal
leafpad.Leafpadworkspace: 0Apart from Firefox, each of the above apps open with the correct size of window but located to a corner of the screen. Firefox-esr limits itself to screen borders, mostly.
I am motivated to keep experimenting now, having got so far. I suppose I could explore fluxbox and jwm, but not yet as icewm is my favourite.PS I am loving Antix, having used Puppy, Fatdog and KLV_Airedale recently. Antix starts from cold within 15 seconds compared to nearly 60 seconds for the others. My setup is a 10 year old Toshiba chromebook with lots of battery life left. ChoromeOS went some time ago, followed by GalliumOS.

I’ve been fooling around with a variety of Web browsers, including a couple of text only browsers, some “different” ones (Luakit), and I’m currently entering this text while visiting here with Vivaldi 5.7.2921.29 (Official Build) snapshot (64-bit). Most of the time I use my own copies of Firefox browsers, usually Firefox-Release, Firefox_Developer and Firefox-Nightly. Occasionally I’ll use a Google-based browser, but only for a select set of things.
On my phone I have a browser version of Duck Duck Go that I use as my mobile browser.

Brian MasinickAfter a weeks wait updates are now available for linux. windoze, free bsd and mac were served far faster.
As volunteers do the work no complaints from my side especialy after trying to self compile ungoogled.
Even with added swap space and burning hot CPU cores no success. Needs a mighty machine and more knowledge than I have ;-).For downloads pls go to
https://ungoogled-software.github.io/ungoogled-chromium-binaries/
Available Version now 109.0.5414.74-1
LibreWolf is also updated, now 109.0.1 The OBS version is still 108 as of 20.01.2023 09:01 Amsterdam time.
If wished for the appimage of LibreWolf can be unpacked after a rename ending in .zip
The unpacked package can be treated in the same way as regular fox, put where you want it, make the binary
executable and create a personal starter if wished for.If wished for remove hidden browser features screenshot etc extensions.
Plenty of forum info on setup ungoogled so no repeats from me.

Vincent17
My library uses Overdrive to provide ebooks and audiobooks. Since 2020, I have read a lot on my old netbook. I was happily using Libbyapp, a reader from Overdrive, until early 2021 when the app suddenly started using excessive processor, causing my netbook to get hot. Even if I sit on one page of the book, the processor remains above 50%. I tested several browsers, no improvement. Eventually I discovered read.overdrive.com, which provides the same content with nearly the same interface yet settles at 1% cpu. Now, in early 2023 they have announced that read.overdrive.com will be discontinued.
I wrote Overdrive and tried to make the case to keep the app so people can continue to use older equipment and help reduce ewaste. As I expected, I got a canned response telling me I’m gonna love Libby. I will live with it, keeping one eye on the cpu temperature.
I just wanted to vent to a sympathetic audience and ask if anyone has any idea what Libby might be doing with my cpu when it’s displaying an unchanging page of print.

Tutanota changed their webmail a couple months ago so it only works with Google’s WebComponents. Firefox is able to render it, but Pale Moon will probably be a few more months of development.
Indeed, WebComponents seem to be the cause of the problem, but, if I understand correctly, there don’t seem to be many expectations for a solution:
https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=70&t=29303#p235638Like I said in another thread, related to the shortcomings of using palemoon/seamonkey – there are some pages that those browsers can’t open (or require plug-ins to do so) – it’s a limitation of that software.
Another one case that seems to confirm it as an unpleasant truth.

are non-free repositories illegal to use
Yes – I’m going to get Richard Stallman to send the Free Software Police to arrest you.
Just kidding – it’s a joke, don’t be so serious.
Try not to use non-free software – very many non-free software packages have been found over the years to be spying on us and reporting our activities to the government, to google and facebook and amazon, and to others with bad intentions. If free software does that, we, the community, can audit the software and look at the source code and make appropriate changes to stop it from being malware. If and when proprietary software does it, we might not ever figure it out. People like Edward Snowden and Julian Assange have had their freedom taken away for warning us about the spyware tools that groups like the NSA, CIA, MI5, Mossad, Bundesnachrichtendienst, etc, etc, use against us citizens. Without these revelations from insiders who are blowing the whistle, we might never know how completely corrupted some closed-source software has become.
When we have the option of using a free software, such as Firefox, vs a non-free software, such as Google Chrome, to do the same task, we’re doing ourselves and our fellow citizens a favor every time we choose the free software option. If everyone always chose free software, then spy agencies and black hat hackers and advertising agencies would have a much harder time spying on us.

Wed 11 Jan 2023 05:26:31 PM CET, all items apply to being logged in using Firefox-ESR.
Not sure if this is an issue or a feature (I hope for the first)…1) All main-level forums displayed on the main site ‘https://www.antixforum.com/’ are preceded by a picture/logo, exclamation mark in a circle “(!)”.
The same symbol appears when I enter a sub-forum or search for topics started and engagements on my profile.
2) There is a new button, “Mark all topics as read” that seemingly does nothing.
3) Reload the (main forum) page newly requires to confirm to resend the information or cancel/deny.1) [Issue?] Is there a missing symbol/picture that needs to be restored?
Or is it a feature (in process of being implemented and) intended to mark fora with unread threads/posts?2) [Issue?] The “Mark all topics as read” button reloads the main forum page but seemingly does nothing otherwise (tested after a reload with with extensions disabled).
3) [Feature?] Which makes a one more step necessary for a simple reload operation (similar to Google e-mail). Not sure what is gained by that.
Personally, I hope the forum to be kept uncluttered with exclamation marks or boldface font visualisation (fora with) unread threads etc.
I am not interested in many of the posts and such a visual emphasizes would be most likely distracting to me.
Also, how would the web-site distinguish among the read and unread if not using cookies stored either on my PC or in my profile on the server?
Would not this increase the server/internet load (and disk-usage in the latter case)?
Of course, I am aware I am not the one to make such decisions, just politely expressing my preference.EDIT 3) Wed 11 Jan 2023 05:54:11 PM CET – reload possible without confirmation.

In reply to: Browsers for 32-bit
PPC
Chromium is not secure because it is not updated
Exactly – I just want to clarify this- this applies to the 32bits version of Chromium and its derived browsers (Chrome, Brave, Edge, etc). Chromium has not been updated in it’s 32bits version for about 2 years now- Google simply stopped supporting 32bits Linux versions- that’s why you can’t play DRMed content in 32bits browsers (Google creates and manages the plugin that video DRM content needs in order to run in a browser, that’s why you can no longer watch Netflix, etc in Linux 32bits…)
Like I said some times before: 32bits is a dead arch – people like me and you are running the last remnants of a long (in computer time) extinct kind of computer… antiX is one of the last OSes to support 32bits machines (there are some others out there, but fewer and fewer…).
Edit: my 32bits laptop also can’t run some 32bits browsers available in Package Manager – it seems it has to do with some features my old CPU lacks (and that some browsers need in order to run). My suggestion – use Palemoon/Seamonkey/Firefox-esr/Firefox – they seem to run in about 100% of 32bits CPU’s out there…

In reply to: Tutanota email error
andyprough
Tutanota changed their webmail a couple months ago so it only works with Google’s WebComponents. Firefox is able to render it, but Pale Moon will probably be a few more months of development. Pale Moon does have some limited WebComponents function right now – you can enable it by searching for WebComponents in about:config and toggling the option to True. I haven’t tried it with Tutanota using the newest Pale Moon release – might be worth a try.
Also the Palefill extension on github restores some ability to work with some sites in Pale Moon. You could open an Issue on that github project and request that they look into adding a fix for Tutanota.
EDIT: I tried it with the new version of Pale Moon and WebComponents set to True in about:config, and still can’t read emails in Tutanota’s webmail. So, no apparent change with this version of Pale Moon.
