The new SeaLion 33.9.0.1 crashes on MintPPC32 when visiting certain websites for example heise.de. The reason for this is MintPPC32's libavcodec.so.61.19.101. I have figured it out with gdb.

Error message:

Code: Select all

Illegal instruction
On Void PPC works the libavcodec.so.58 with the new SeaLion 33.9.0.1 without any problems.

Workaround on MintPPC32:

about:config - search media - set media.ffmpeg.enabled to false

After the workaround, SeaLion 33.9.0.1 works without any problems on MintPPC32.

Hi All,

Wicknix has released the version 33.9.1 of SeaLion. :-)

I compiled it for Linux PowerPC 32-bit without AltiVec and for Linux PPC64 with AltiVec today.

Download and further information: github.com

@mintppc
Please add them to the MintPPC repositories.

Have a nice weekend! :-)

This issue still exists on MintPPC.

Hi All,

A new ViewTube add-on is available.

Installation instructions:
  1. Download the SeaLion-Extras.zip package.
  2. Unpack it and install the addon greasemonkey-3.10.0.1rc3pre-sw.xpi
  3. Download the new ViewTube SeaLion and Brassmonkey package
  4. Delete the old folder gm_scripts
    rm -rf /home/<your user directory>/.wicknix/sealion/<profile directory>/gm_scripts
  5. 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/gm_scripts /home/amigaone/.wicknix/sealion/iykmgak4.default/
  6. Restart SeaLion
Cheers,
Christian
