xubuntu11dmost of them work fine but others are not working12:53
xubuntu11dtried deleting/reinstalling them too to no avail...12:54
xubuntu11dso it is a "Viewer" program called "Firestorm/Phoenix Viewer" for access to SecondLife that im having trouble getting back into...12:57
xubuntu11dhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lgi18cfdXIg is an example of what i previously followed to install in Mint XFCE successfully but no sound output... i have sound output now in all other application programs such as youtube/KrueTV so im Hoping that Xubuntu will have sound in SL IF I can get the viewers to work...?13:06

xubuntu57dHi does this work?23:23
Spass_xubuntu57d: hello, yes23:25
Spass_xubuntu57d: what file exactly are you trying to install?23:27
Spass_did you try doing it in terminal instead?23:27
xubuntu57dThanks! I am tryin to install a photo program called pixeluvo.. Normally it installs easy..23:28
xubuntu57dI am notthat good with the terminal yet.23:29
Spass_if you want an easy GUI tool for installing DEB packages/files you can try GDebi23:31
xubuntu57dHow do I get that into xubuntu?23:31
Spass_it should be available in the repos, so install it via software center or run in the terminal - sudo apt install gdebi23:33
xubuntu57dinstalling it now23:33
Spass_or, just run this command to install your DEB package/file - sudo dpkg -i package_name.deb23:34
xubuntu57dwill let you know if it works.. I think it will thanks!23:34
Spass_GDebi probably won't be as default to open DEB files, so choose it from the right-click menu on .deb23:36
xubuntu57dIt worked very nicely thanks!23:38
xubuntu57dVery happy with xubuntu.. They did a good job!23:40
Spass_xubuntu57d: great, and yes they did :)23:41
xubuntu57dI think I am done switching linux distros..23:41
Spass_Xubuntu has everything what is needed to be a great all-around distro, sometimes it just need to be slightly configured and personalised23:46
