Hello davemx ... nice web site ... me too, the second one I feel comfortable with, the last one was Ubuntu 10.04LTS.

Re: A great Linux, the second one I feel comfortable with!
Thanks for the write-up! About the youtube-dl section, though: we've recently updated youtube-dl in the main repo, so that may now longer be necessary, especially if we continue to keep it up to date. Also, youtube-dl-gui uses its own internal downloaded youtube-dl which is separate from the system version (as does qmplay2), and the internal version can be updated from within the program.
Re: A great Linux, the second one I feel comfortable with!
To be fair, it's not obvious to realize, that youtube-dl-gui uses it's own youtube-dl, which also updates it with one click. You find the internal used version under /home/$USERNAME/.config/youtube-dlg/youtube-dl.Stevo wrote: ↑Tue Sep 25, 2018 3:18 pm Thanks for the write-up!

Re: A great Linux, the second one I feel comfortable with!
I've re-written the bit on YouTube-dl. My understanding is that programmers are forever catching up with changes in the YouTube site, and then the devs for each distro are, in turn, catching up with them, and changed it to an explanation of what to do if it's not working.
Hope everyone's happy with the rest of it.

Re: A great Linux, the second one I feel comfortable with!
Hello everyone
MX is being the best experience I've ever had on Linux. I'm a rookie, really a rookie, (few months), but I felt comfortable from the first moment.
I hope to learn a lot from your experience

Seem they did also fixed a couple of issues with their latest installer, including the /var/spool/lpd
and those lib will be installed lib32gcc1 lib32stdc++6 libc6-i386.
You can try my latest brother-downloader and installer script,
which includes also a checksum verification.
Just start it, e.g. from the command line as
Code: Select all
./brinstaller.sh 'Your-printer-model-name-here'
Code: Select all

Re: A great Linux, the second one I feel comfortable with!
A clarification on the test repo in MXPI. It is not the Debian Test Repo, it is an MX test repo that is populated by our package managers. It includes some packages from Debian Testing, other distro offerings and other miscellaneous packages that are not available tin Debian Stable.

Re: A great Linux, the second one I feel comfortable with!
I will do! I'll just have to set up a new partition to test it. Is the script available as a deb through the repositories? I would imagine that if it were, it would include a copyright notice for Brother? It would be great if you could install a script through the installer or synaptic, it runs and installs!fehlix wrote: ↑Tue Sep 25, 2018 4:48 pmI've just check the latest brother installation, which you also have mentioned.davemx wrote: ↑Tue Sep 25, 2018 2:53 pm https://davespagnol.wordpress.com/2018/ ... -everyone/
