| cfaulk43 | Good morning all you nice people! I wonder if you could help me; I'm trying to move away from 16.04.3 LTS to the latest version of Kubuntu, Zesty Zapus (17.04). I can't get do-release-upgrade to pick anything up. | 09:54 |
| cfaulk43 | I've tried a couple things on the net, do-release-upgrade -d to take it out of supported mode into devel, etc, but nothing's working. If I do that, I get a traceback from python and something about it only being available from the "Latest supported relese"> | 09:55 |
| cfaulk43 | *release | 09:55 |
| cfaulk43 | afk - brb | 09:58 |
| lordievader | cfaulk43: You need to configure the updater to allow upgrading to non LTS releases. | 10:02 |
| lordievader | That way you can upgrade to 16.10 -> 17.04 | 10:03 |
| cfaulk43 | Ok, can you explain to me how I do that please, lordievader? | 10:07 |
| cfaulk43 | I'm in and out at the moment as i'm doing laundry, but I'm watching to catch any messages | 10:08 |
| BlackKatMike | Hi everyone! Got two 16.04 installations (one on a physical machine, one one a VMs) with the Kubuntu Backports PPA enaled (deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu xenial main). After upgrading to Firefox 56, Flash plugin doesn't work anymore. | 10:09 |
| BlackKatMike | The checkbox in FF plugins configuration that disables Flash for certain domains seems uneffective. | 10:09 |
| lordievader | cfaulk43: i forgot, to be honest. But some googling will likely point you to documentation. | 10:09 |
| BlackKatMike | Is anyone experiencing the same problem? | 10:09 |
| hateball | lemme see, I am apparently on 55 still | 10:16 |
| BlackKatMike | Hateball: on the VM I still had 55. I tested Flash with that before upgrading and it worked, indeed. | 10:17 |
| BlackKatMike | But of course not anymore after upgrading to 56 | 10:18 |
| hateball | just letting dpkg work its magic here... | 10:19 |
| hateball | come on little computer | 10:19 |
| cfaulk43 | ok lordievader - thanks for the help, at least I have a rough idea of what I'm doing :) | 10:21 |
| hateball | BlackKatMike: hmmm, seems to work for me... | 10:24 |
| hateball | or maybe not | 10:25 |
| cfaulk43 | Found it, lordievader - you have to update the line Prompt=lts to Promt=normal in /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades | 10:25 |
| cfaulk43 | *Prompt=normal | 10:25 |
| hateball | BlackKatMike: I wonder if that's because it's a rather old flash (v25) in 16.04 package | 10:28 |
| BlackKatMike | hateball: if you go to http://get.adobe.com/it/flashplayer/about/ you should briefly see a bouncing cube animation made in Flash on top of the page (it swaps fith a fixed image ad after a few seconds). On the side of the text (above the table with Flash versions per platform) you should see a frame with the installed flash version. | 10:29 |
| hateball | yep | 10:29 |
| hateball | and I see I cant :p | 10:29 |
| hateball | It works in chromium with pepperflash, so lets see if a manual install in firefox will work | 10:30 |
| BlackKatMike | hateball: I have flash 27.0.0.130. It gets correctly listed in FF's plugin list. | 10:30 |
| hateball | oh! | 10:30 |
| hateball | I had 25 see, the adobe-flashplugin package wouldnt fetch anything newer | 10:31 |
| BlackKatMike | I used the flashplugin-installer package actually | 10:31 |
| BlackKatMike | It's the package that installs just a stub downloader script, then upon configuring runs it and downloads the actual Flash plugin (tar.gzipped maybe?) from Canonical's server. | 10:33 |
| hateball | yes | 10:33 |
| hateball | the adobe-flashplugin is supposed to do the same, but for chromium (pepperflash) as well | 10:34 |
| hateball | so you dont need two packages | 10:34 |
| hateball | anyhow, I tried some random flash game and it freezes firefox | 10:34 |
| hateball | same thing works just fine in chromium | 10:34 |
| hateball | soooooooo some sort of firefox regression then | 10:36 |
| BlackKatMike | Hmmm... I read that with FF56 Mozilla deprecated ALSA and supports Pulseaudio only. Don't know if that's a contributing factor, though. | 10:44 |
| hateball | I do have pulseaudio, but maybe libflashplayer.so speaks directly to ALSA or something | 10:47 |
| hateball | BlackKatMike: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1720908 | 10:48 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1720908 in firefox (Ubuntu) "Firefox cannot load Flash because of libxul broken dependency" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 10:48 |
| BlackKatMike | ubottu: thank you very much, will follow that bug! | 10:51 |
| ubottu | BlackKatMike: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 10:51 |
| BlackKatMike | LOL talked to a bot :). Anyway, thank you hateball. Will follow that bug! | 10:52 |
| BlackKatMike | hateball: damn now I realized that the bot talked because of the link you posted! I'm doing too many things at once :) | 10:53 |
| BlackKatMike | Thank you again, bye! | 10:53 |

| lordievader | Thought support was thrown out. | 12:24 |
| lordievader | Yes, and in general. | 12:24 |
| lordievader | Oh, I see you enabled it somewhere, guess my info is wrong ;) | 12:24 |
| wojb | yes :) | 12:25 |
| wojb | And I see that there is some Konqueror Gestures defined in Custom Shortcuts menu | 12:25 |
| hateball | wojb: if you enabled mouse actions *now*, did you restart your session to make sure the daemon is running? | 12:29 |
| wojb | I restarted my machine - yes | 12:31 |
