The libffi8 was already installed. After creating the symbolic link, I got this error:
Please take the libffi.so.7 from Void PPC and upload it for others here.

I think you should remove the syslink and run “apt-get update && apt-get install libffi7”. Or I’ll have the new version in there within a couple of days.

YouTube videos in HD with ViewTube and SeaLion

Hi All,

Here are installation instructions for ViewTube with SeaLion:
  1. Download the SeaLion-Extras.zip package.
  2. Unpack it and install the addon greasemonkey-3.10.0.1rc3pre-sw.xpi
  3. Download the ViewTube SeaLion package
  4. Unpack the package and copy the folder gm_scripts to /home/<your user directory>/.wicknix/sealion/<profile directory>/
    For example:

    Code: Select all

    cp -R Downloads/ViewTube_SeaLion/gm_scripts /home/amigaone/.wicknix/sealion/iykmgak4.default/
  5. Restart SeaLion
Cheers,
Christian
You need to configure ViewTube via the 3 dots under the video. I use the embed video with Embed and play it with VLC.

Hi All,

I successfully tested the new SeaLion 32.2.1 on MintPPC today.

Additionally, I added my preferred theme from an old version of SeaLion and I installed Greasemonkey and ViewTube successfully.

The new SeaLion works great and this is definitely my preferred web browser on Linux PPC currently.

Many thanks to Wicknix for this great browser. Well done!
