| zePh7r | hi everyone, I'm looking to update a few packages to a version that's not available on the pre-set (at installation) repos - specifically, I'm interested in updating SeaMonkey to the latest release available. Is there a preferred repository to do this that you are aware of? Many thanks in advance | 10:44 |

| zePh7r | hey hateball, thanks for the heads-up! | 10:49 |
| zePh7r | does PPA compare to the user repos available on opensuse? I'm asking because I'm more familiar with the Suse typology | 12:06 |
| hateball | I wouldnt know, I'm not familiar with suse :p | 12:08 |
| zePh7r | That's alright. But in concept it seems pretty familiar | 12:15 |

| mrpenguin | anyone here? | 14:01 |
| mrpenguin | Hello? | 14:04 |
| mrpenguin | Hi Pavlushka | 14:08 |
| pavlushka | Hello mrpenguin | 14:09 |
| mrpenguin | I need help with installation of Flash Player for Opera.Could you guild me through the entire process? | 14:11 |
| mrpenguin | Please | 14:11 |
| pavlushka | mrpenguin: if you have flash player installed on your system, then all browsers should get it | 14:13 |
| pavlushka | mrpenguin: do you have flash player installed in your system? | 14:13 |
| mrpenguin | The problem is I don't know how to install flash player. | 14:13 |
| mrpenguin | I tried various commands | 14:14 |
| mrpenguin | but there is always some error. | 14:14 |
| mrpenguin | I would like to watch flash contents in Opera 43.I'm also running Lubuntu 64 bits 16.04.1 LTS | 14:15 |
| pavlushka | mrpenguin: hang on a second, I am getting back to you in a moment :) | 14:16 |
| mrpenguin | thanks :) | 14:16 |
| pavlushka | mrpenguin: paste the result using paste.ubuntu.com of the command "sudo apt search flashplugin-installer" | 14:21 |
| pavlushka | from terminal | 14:21 |
| mrpenguin | ok | 14:21 |
| pavlushka | mrpenguin: and post that paste link here | 14:22 |
| mrpenguin | My system is not english. Do I need to change System language first? | 14:23 |
| pavlushka | mrpenguin: nope, just do it as it is :) | 14:23 |
| mrpenguin | http://paste.ubuntu.com/23967001/ | 14:24 |
| mrpenguin | ok done | 14:24 |
| pavlushka | mrpenguin: now run in terminal "sudo apt install flashplugin-installer", and wait for it to complete, its a two step automatic process. | 14:26 |
| pavlushka | mrpenguin: first the system will install flashplugin-installer and then the flashplugin-installer will install the flashplugin to the system | 14:27 |
| mrpenguin | http://paste.ubuntu.com/23967019/ | 14:27 |
| pavlushka | mrpenguin: the second process will prompt you for confirmation, hit tab to select ok in that process | 14:27 |
| pavlushka | mrpenguin: do a "apt update && apt install -y flashplugin-installer" | 14:29 |
| pavlushka | mrpenguin: do a "sudo apt update && sudo apt install flashplugin-installer" (corrected) | 14:29 |
| mrpenguin | http://paste.ubuntu.com/23967036/ | 14:30 |
| mrpenguin | looks like the plugin is already installed. | 14:31 |
| mrpenguin | should I restart my browser? | 14:31 |
| pavlushka | mrpenguin: ok, try that | 14:33 |
| mrpenguin | will brb | 14:34 |
