Re: Youtube upgrade has killed minitube

For Minitube, you can use the 32 bit deb from the minitube homepage which has the developer's Google API key compiled in. 64 bit requires a newer libc6. Yes, the new Minitube version 2.4 works very well with the modified YouTube. It's nice that you can play YouTube videos from within Minitube itsel...

Re: MX-14 kde start button

Thanks for the artwork! My new MX Launcher button looks so much more elegant than the clunky old KDE button! The transparent look goes very nicely with the other icons on my panel:

Re: Desiring a Dolphin icon in my panel

I'm a little confused.

You posted this under MEPIS-DEVELOPMENT INACTIVE, SUPPORTED BY THIS COMMUNITY > Older Versions > Software / Configuration > KDE

Are you running KDE under MX-14.4?

Re: Very Large File Having An Unknown Purpose

It is the database nepomuk creates for file name and content searches. It is a common complaint that the db grows eating space. You can turn it off in System settings. EDIT: Later versions of KDE do not have the file and do not suffer from the same space usage. Disabling nepomuk in System Settings ...

Very Large File Having An Unknown Purpose

My my /home directory was growing quite large over time. Using K4DirStat, I was able to identify a large file ~/.kde/share/apps/nepomuk/repository/main/data/vituosobackend/soprano-virtuoso.db that was buried on the HDD. After deleting that file and restarting the system, my /home directory was reduc...

Re: new install won't load KDE

FWIW, I have the same graphics card as U.M. (6150 LE). KDE and all of its effects work perfectly on my machine. If the problem is indeed graphics-related, I'd try a different driver.

Re: Iceweasel - sound stopped working

Also there's a firefox extension (which should also work with iceweasel) that will play Youtube videos using HTML5 instead of using flash: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/youtube-html5-video/?src=api Thanks for the info about the "YouTube HTML5 Video" extension. There's som...

Re: Iceweasel - sound stopped working

Well I either didn't do that correctly, or it just didn't work for me. I put that file on my /home directory, is that where it was supposed to go? My interpretation is the file should go in /home/ username / and not just /home. Also, you may have to log out and log back in for the change to take ef...

Re: Iceweasel - sound stopped working

I'm sorry I can't help you with installing an earlier version of Iceweasel, but here's a link that may provide a solution to the sound problem you are having with the flash plugin with the current version: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/debian-26/no-sound-in-youtube-flash-with-wheezy-flashp...

Re: Easy md5sum checking

I rarely (never) have a need to copy or paste the output results of md5sum when verifying the hash code of a file because I don't check the entire 32-character string; I only eyeball the first 4 or the last 4 characters. If those match the published results, I assume the file is good. Why? Because I...
