| FatPhil | where can I find a deb of firefox-91.0+build2-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 ? | 12:42 |
|---|---|---|
| tomreyn | FatPhil: why would you want an outdated, insecure, version? | 17:03 |
| FatPhil | because that's what's on my live USB stick, and I'm having other seemingly insurmountable issues upgrading to 110. | 21:04 |
| FatPhil | HAving said that. Feature creep has made more modern Firefoxes completely undesirable. | 21:04 |
| FatPhil | and by creep, I mean "removal". | 21:05 |
| tomreyn | you could use the snap, that would get you a current version | 22:04 |
| tomreyn | maybe we can solve the "other unsurmountable issues upgrading to [firefox] 110" if you'd like to discuss the details. | 22:05 |
| tomreyn | are we talking about an installation to usb stick, not just a live/installer iso written to it? | 22:05 |
| FatPhil | it's a 3-year-old persistent live stick that has corruption issues | 22:16 |
| FatPhil | I managed to fix some of them with apt-get install --reinstall, but there's an i/o error that prevents one of the firefox files being "linked" as I tried to install 110 over 91. I was wondering if a not-an-upgrade would not have this "make a backup of the old file" behaviour. | 22:18 |
| Jim` | Is there any reason to upgrade from a stable 20.04.1 yet? | 22:58 |
| Jim` | Or just let the LTS upgrade in April ? | 22:58 |
| arraybolt3 | Depends on what you're doing. | 23:04 |
| arraybolt3 | Lubuntu 20.04 goes end-of-life in April of this year, however the underlying Ubuntu 20.04 OS will remain supported for another two years. | 23:04 |
| Jim` | arraybolt3: after I updated teh packages it says | 23:04 |
| Jim` | New release '22.04.2 LTS' available. | 23:04 |
| Jim` | Run 'do-release-upgrade' to upgrade to it. | 23:04 |
| Jim` | Looks like it wants me to do that | 23:04 |
| arraybolt3 | You don't *have* to, but it would be recommended to upgrade when it's convenient. You should back up your data first just in case something goes wrong. | 23:05 |
| Jim` | Seems like since I hardly use the machine I might as well update it | 23:05 |
| Jim` | While I got it on | 23:05 |
| Jim` | and if I ever need it as a backup, it'll be ready | 23:05 |
| Jim` | rather than messing around with it when I need it | 23:05 |
| Jim` | (if that day comes) | 23:05 |
| arraybolt3 | Sounds like a good idea to me. | 23:05 |
| Jim` | Is there a way to check to see if it has TPM 2? | 23:06 |
| Jim` | within lubuntu | 23:06 |
| Jim` | Might can convert it in to a Win 11 machine and not have to buy a new one | 23:06 |
| Jim` | But that's a little OT here I guess | 23:06 |
| Jim` | arraybolt3: It's upgrading to "jammy" | 23:19 |
| Jim` | arraybolt3: I'm gonna assume I probably should have downloaded the ISO and did it manually.. | 23:19 |
| Jim` | I guess I'll know if the machine works or not when it's done :D | 23:21 |
