I downloaded the .deb and installed in Tahrpup. Works perfectly.

Best,

Just curious what extensions you stuffed in there.
Any secure/privacy recommends?

@backi

Try typing iron in the terminal and let me know what message you get. I've been using the older verions of Iron for a while so it's possible that I already had a dependency installed that it may need.

Let me know what it says.

Thanks,

Default Changer 2b

IMPORTANT: This is a test project and really is not meant to be used for anything except changing the browser default. I have been using it for quite a while, though.

For Tahrpup, I currently use option 5b under the browser option. You could also try 6M or 9. This adds some security scripting and defaults the browser to incognito. Hitting the browser button on your desktop (the generic default browser) should take you in with the scripted settings. 6M is the better to use if it works. For some reason, it wasn't working on the older Iron versions but it seems to work on the new .deb 32 bit package from the previous link. The script only works as your default browser so if you go into the menu and use the browser, the script doesn't work.

I took the tarball and did the necessary tweaks.
It even runs in Wheezy (which has glibc 2.13)
Tested also in Precise and Slacko 5.7.0 (This needed libgconf2 as usual for Chromium derivatives).
I also manually added Pepper Flash Player 20.0.0.306
Seems OK

Oscar,

As usual, you're work is excellent. Thank you. In my opinion, the Chome / Chromium based browsers are much better than the Firefox and their derivatives. IMHO, this is a Palemoon replacement.

It looks like a Sandbox issue. Have you tried the script I sent in the above box? Or, maybe better would be to uninstall and try OscarTalks pet version.

Update: Ok. If you installed the .deb package and you previously used chrome or another chromium based browser; you may need a different sandbox.

The pet below, simply called Iron-1 will change the sandbox from chrome to chromiumX.

Also, for those that can't track it down, the .deb installs at /usr/share/iron

See link above that should solve the .deb install issue.

Pupjibaro Jessie 64bits offers to load Iron the Browser . Done for test, i remember that Iron was not my cup of tea, in lonely days.
Versión 48.0.2550.0. A browser must be easy to use, and browse far on social sites, a valiant ship, not a sail-board.. Feed-back soon..
Ah !
HOW TO ENABLE PPAPI-FLASH

Windows:
1. Download PPAPI Flash: https://admdownload.adobe.com/bin/live/ ... nstall.exe
2. Close Iron, then run the setup. Everything works out of the box!

--------------------Linux:
Ubuntu-Systems:
1) sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu $(lsb_release -sc) partner"
2) sudo apt-get update
3) sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin
4) Launch Iron with parameter: ./iron --ppapi-flash-path=/usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libpepflashplayer.so --ppapi-flash-version=21.0.0.213

Version updated to 50.0.2650.0 (32bit)
Packaged as .pet and .sfs and a fairly good option for people who want a recent Chromium derivative for Puppies later than Lucid but earlier than the current official ones (glibc-2.13 or later). Tested in Precise, Slacko 5.7 (needs libgconf2), and Wheezy. The main binary in the unpacked tarball is not stripped so I did that, this reduces the size considerably. Latest available 32bit Pepper Flash is also added.
Uploaded for illustration and experimentation purposes only.

Hi Oscar,

How do you strip these down? I compiled Iron in Xerus64 and at times I get the icon on the bottom of the screen but it doesn't boot up. I think it's at least partly due to the size.

Thanks for any insight.

Hi Slavvo,

Strip is in the devx so you have to have that loaded. Only certain files can be stripped. In Iron the main executable is a big one. Not sure why they haven't stripped it during the course of the build. Anyway I just enter the main directory and run

Code: Select all

strip --strip-unneeded filename
on any that are not stripped. Right click and properties will tell you if it is stripped already or not. When you say you compiled it do you mean you installed it from the .deb or the tarball or something? If it doesn't start you may need to try disabling the setuid sandbox and/or the namespace sandbox but I am not familiar with Xerus64 unfortunately.

Hi Oscar,

By compile, I mean that I downloaded the source files, extracted and did a make / make install. Is that the right term? :oops:

So would I strip the file in the tar.gz prior to doing the make / make install moves or do I go in after?
