rhoks | hello hello. | 19:17 |
rhoks | Is he default firefox browser that comes preloaded good enough to play youtube and facebook videos on an old laptop? | 19:17 |
rhoks | or do I need to install flash player or something (I have no idea) | 19:18 |
diogenes_ | rhoks, if you have 3Gb+ RAM. | 19:19 |
rhoks | well it has 3.5GB of RAM from what I can tell diogenes_ sir | 19:21 |
diogenes_ | rhoks, should be ok but don't open too many tabs. | 19:23 |
rhoks | also the preloaded browser is the lightest one I could use on the system right? diogenes_ | 19:23 |
rhoks | light on the RAM and CPU I mean. | 19:24 |
diogenes_ | rhoks, not the lightest but standard linux browser. | 19:25 |
rhoks | whats the lightest I could use for basic usage | 19:25 |
rhoks | youtube and facebook for example | 19:25 |
diogenes_ | rhoks, anyone that includes webrtc technology and other stuff to be able to call, is not lightweight apriori. | 19:27 |
diogenes_ | web call, playback sucks up lots of resources. | 19:28 |
rhoks | I see. | 19:29 |
rhoks | sooo | 19:30 |
rhoks | but in general though whats the lightest browser one could use with xubuntu though | 19:30 |
diogenes_ | rhoks, epiphany, dillo, falkon. | 19:31 |
rhoks | excellent | 19:35 |
rhoks | will install ephiphany I think | 19:35 |
rhoks | I think I've heard of it or use it ages ago | 19:35 |
tomreyn | 3.5 GB RAM sounds like it can be 32-bit, though? | 19:37 |
diogenes_ | tomreyn, 19.10 is 64 only. | 19:39 |
tomreyn | was 19.10 mentioned? i may have missed it | 19:39 |
diogenes_ | nope but people always tend to get the latest. | 19:40 |
diogenes_ | psychology. | 19:41 |
tomreyn | :) | 19:41 |
rhoks | tomreyn, its actually 64bit | 19:51 |
rhoks | was a windows 7 home premium hp 2000-365XD or DX system | 19:52 |
rhoks | from 2010 or 2011 I believe | 19:52 |
rhoks | and I definitely installed LTS | 19:52 |
rhoks | 18.03 or 04 | 19:52 |
rhoks | tbh its not for me its for this old man that is not tech savvy | 19:53 |
rhoks | windows 7 was super slow and Microsoft just announced a few days ago they're officially ending support for win7 | 19:54 |
rhoks | and he often uses it to stream video on browsers | 19:54 |
rhoks | epiphany cannot be found in the Software center? Do I need to add a repo or something to install it? | 19:56 |
rhoks | diogenes_ ? | 19:57 |
diogenes_ | rhoks, afaik it changed the name to gnome-browser or web. | 19:58 |
tomreyn | rhoks: oh right, a Pentium Processor B950 apparently, that's a 64-bit sandybridge. | 20:17 |
rhoks | tomreyn, diogenes_ why do you think is it not going to sleep/suspension when I fold the laptop? | 20:24 |
rhoks | I mean the screen went dark... but the fan was still on meaning it didn't suspend | 20:25 |
tomreyn | rhoks: i don't think i talked about this. | 20:25 |
rhoks | maybe i should've waited longer | 20:25 |
rhoks | haha | 20:25 |
diogenes_ | rhoks, you need to set it in logind.conf | 20:25 |
rhoks | ahh I believe I found the setting to correct this. | 20:25 |
rhoks | using the gui xfce power manager | 20:26 |
rhoks | Done! | 20:27 |
rhoks | I think thats it. | 20:27 |
rhoks | I'll just tell the old man not to use more than 3 or 4 tabs and it should be fine. | 20:27 |
rhoks | thanks guys. | 20:27 |
diogenes_ | np | 20:28 |
tomreyn | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNOME_Web - the 3.34 changelog sounds good ("Rewritten and improved ad blocker which uses Webkit's content filtering. Web process sandboxing for improved security. Favorite tabs can be pinned. Plugin support removed.") - but a release per year or per 2 years is a problem unless you have a way to reliably get security patches backported. | 20:38 |
kubast2 | guys | 23:05 |
kubast2 | how do I undo | 23:05 |
kubast2 | screen zoom | 23:05 |
kubast2 | without rebooting | 23:05 |
gnrp | alt+mouse wheel | 23:05 |
kubast2 | no way | 23:05 |
kubast2 | yeah I know what happend now | 23:05 |
kubast2 | the piece of shit touchpad | 23:06 |
gnrp | lol | 23:06 |
kubast2 | why are touchpad so big now, or at least placed in a way I need to use my laptops keyboard as if I was nursing a baby | 23:06 |
kubast2 | I honestly can't fucking imagine people using macbooks | 23:07 |
gnrp | for some reasons with macbooks the palm recognition works quite well, I have to say | 23:07 |
gnrp | you can tune the parameters for your needs anyway | 23:07 |
kubast2 | Ah I think I just don't have palm recognition at all | 23:07 |
kubast2 | I kinda try to rest my hands where the touchpads isn't there | 23:08 |
kubast2 | but I still hit the corners of the touchpad at times | 23:08 |
gnrp | I also in the beginning when I had my current notebook always moved the cursor while typing... then I spent half an hour tuning that stuff (so the thresholds when somthing is considered a finger and when not) and now it is much nicer | 23:08 |
gnrp | check out synclient | 23:08 |
kubast2 | in sec gotta run apt upgrade first | 23:17 |
kubast2 | oh | 23:17 |
kubast2 | xserver-xorg-core-hwe-18.04 | 23:17 |
kubast2 | I actually use hwe without knowing it | 23:17 |
kubast2 | so I need xserver-xorg-input-synaptics-hwe-18.04: instead of xserver-xorg-input-synaptics: | 23:18 |
kubast2 | xserver-xorg-input-synaptics-hwe-18.04 is already the newest version (1.9.1-1ubuntu1~18.04.1). | 23:18 |
kubast2 | okay | 23:18 |
kubast2 | okay it is installed of course | 23:19 |
kubast2 | HorizTwoFingerScroll 0 I know what I need to enable; VertEdgeScroll 1 I wasn't even aware this was enabled | 23:21 |
kubast2 | 2 finger scroll is more ergonomic ngl | 23:21 |
