xubuntu65dHow do I go about installing Firefox ESR on xubuntu? I am new to Linux as a whole. I just downloaded the ESR bz2 File from Mozilla, I googled and it seems to be something akin to a zip that I need to extract. People recommended I try bzip2, when I tried to install that from terminal it says its already installed, however I can't seem to find it20:13
xubuntu65danywhere.20:13
tomreynxubuntu65d: packages (like bzip2) can provide executable commands (none, one, or multiple). one fo the commands the bzip2 package provides is bunzip2, this would help you there.20:16
tomreynfo -> of20:17
xubuntu65dSo bzip2 is only used through the terminal? Are there any alternatives with a graphical interface?20:17

tomreynyes, you are looking for a graphical file archiving utility then. xfce provide sone, i just forgot its name20:18
tomreynso the "thunar archive plugin" is one way apparently20:19
tomreynthunar being your graphical file browser20:19
tomreynother than that you could use file-roller or Xarchiver, i think.20:20
tomreynhttps://docs.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/archive20:20
tomreyni expect xubuntu to provide one graphical utility to extract / unpack common archive formats (such as bzip2) out of the box. maybe not if you chose to do a minimal installation20:21
xubuntu65dYeah might have to do with minimal installation... not quite what I had in mind when I picked that20:21
xubuntu65dGuess I'll do a fresh installation with a regular installation tomorrow then. Maybe second times the charm :D20:22
tomreyni think you can just move from the minimal install to a full install by installing another package, probably xubuntu-desktop20:23
tomreynthe reverse is harder20:23
xubuntu65dMind if I share another problem I encountered with you?20:24
tomreynpackage xfce4-goodies should provide the thunar file archive management plgin, whre you can right-click on an archive file in the thunar file browser and select to unpack it20:24
tomreynxubuntu65d: not at all, that's what this channel is for20:25
xubuntu65dSo under Settings > Display I tried to set the refresh rate to 120hz, as that is what my monitor supports. However when I select and apply it, the top fifth of my screen turns black and isn't responsive.20:27
xubuntu65dis that just something I will have to live with when using ubuntu or is there an underlying issue that can be fixed20:27
tomreynhmm, i'm afraid i would not know this. it's something you could report as a bug, though (which requires creating an sso.ubuntu.com account, which takes about 2-3 minutes).20:29
tomreyn!bug20:29
ubottuIf you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its official !flavors, please report it using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs.20:29
xubuntu65dAlright, I'll see if the problem persists on my fresh install tomorrow. Thank you for your time! Have a nice evening/night :D20:30
tomreynthe package to report a bug against may be xfwm4, i think so, this would be    ubuntu-bug xfwm420:31
zandokhi everybody21:31
