Barry and everyone,

What's the easy way (or is it not possible?) to run the latest Firefox-ESR 68.9.0 (which has some significant and important security updates) on EasyOS v 2.3 in Container-mode?

I downloaded Barry's latest Firefox SFS 68.7.0. This also brought the amd.sfs dependency.

I then ...

The truce is that one upon a time I too did try to join a movement on holding up this stupidity with software. I did fail, got no where.

Listen to the others here.

I'll chime in too: proceed with WFN (on any system) as if the worst that can happen to you, will.

Hi Barry & all,

I give up on getting Firefox to run using "Easy Container Management" (launching ECM from the Menu). ECM creates it fine, but after that: nada, with a capital "N".

If anyone, who uses Petget to install the latest Debian-Buster provided Firefox-ESR in their EasyOS frugal install ...

Hi Barry,

I tried everything I could think of, patiently mapping out what Easy Container Management set up for firefox-esr, and I could find nothing wrong.

To use as a side-by-side example, I used Petget & installed Debian's latest chromium, and Easy Container Management easily set up chromium ...

Awe, nuts.

Just spent an hour getting this 2.2.16 set up across various machines.

I didn't use sfsget for anything yet.

Question: can I just swap the new sfsget script in on these installs I've just done instead of doing completely new installs again?? I customize a lot of things, so would like ...

Thank you for this latest Easy update, Barry. Good stuff!!

Also, I've got to say I am perplexed by these remarks about booting up and network recognition problems.

Past year now, I have installed Easy numerous times on very old equipment, ( both desktop PCs and laptops ), some nearly two decades ...

As this unfortunate Coronavirus thing sweeps around the world, having all this downtime led me to go distro-hunting and hopping over the past 8-10 days. To see what's been up over the past year in the Leeeeeenux world.

Yay, EasyPup 2.2.14 is out:

As I mentioned in the EasyOS 2.2.14 announcement, the PackIt app is supposed to be in the right-click menu when right-click on a file or folder, but isn't. It is still available in the "Utility" main menu. I ...
