Thanks. I should have looked around more. It's been a while since I fired up my 4MLinux VM and I'm a little rusty with it.

Can I uninstall Chromium?

Quite easily:
Code:
rm -fr /opt/chromium
This is somewhat brutal but effective :-)


When you install a new web browser in 4MLinux, it will be automatically setup as the default one.
You can also use this: Menu > Settings > DefaultApps > Browser

TheSSS 27.2 released.

This is a minor (point) release based on the 4MLinux Server 27.2, meaning that the components of the LAMP server are now: Linux 4.14.94, Apache 2.4.37, MariaDB 10.3.12, and PHP (both 5.6.40 and 7.2.14).

You can update your TheSSS by executing the "zk update" command (fully automatic process).

Hi Zbigniew. Smooth update as usual.

I notice that when I go to 'Firefox' >> 'Help' >> 'About Firefox', then it downloads the newest Firefox that it does not restart. Also it won't launch from the wbar. The only fix I found was to remove FF and reinstall. Why was FF not updated to the latest version with 'zk update'?

4MLinux updates the contents of the /opt directory only for major releases (26.0, 27.0, 28.0, ...)

It looks that the newest Firefox is not fully compatible with the 4MLinux 27 series. You must wait till the next major 4MLinux release, which will fix that (at least I hope so :-). In the meantime you should disable automatic updates of Firefox:

Thanks for reporting this problem !

Exclamation

Unfortunately the FF issue persists. I ran the code from https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...nux-4175647554. I installed Chromium and it works fine but I much prefer FF. As it stands, I cannot launch FF.

1) Restore the default version:
Code:
4mlinuX getfirefox
2) Now run the code:
https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...nux-4175647554

Done!
