wattOS R8 / Re: What apps are already included in R8 LXDE
« on: October 25, 2014, 12:58:37 PM »
wattOS doesn't look like it has a plenty of ready installed apps. I believe it is because of it's minimalistic background.

I like it because it doesn't make a grill like machine of my netbook :) On other distros I suffer because my left hand gets burned by processor fan.

wattOS R8 / Re: Installing Opera
« on: October 24, 2014, 09:00:36 PM »
Thanks BALLOON :) it works with some help. Installing opera_12.16.1860_i386.deb via GDebi fails because of missing packages. I had to install it manually using:

sudo dpkg -i opera_12.16.1860_i386.deb

and then

sudo apt-get -f install

and now it works!

BTW
My problem was, that I expected my machine to be x86 architecture. I'm used to Windows naming convention and Windows XP originally installed on my netbook was x86 (32-bit in MS language). Acronym of i386 in MS language refers to old Pentium processors.
You are right, I kept downloading amd64 (opera_12.16.1860_amd64.deb) file.

What is the meaning of x86 and i386 in Linux world?

wattOS R8 / SOLVED - Installing Opera

How do I install Opera on my wattOS?

I need it because nor Firefox or Iceweasel do not render Google Analytics website. It is displayed only on half of page (vertical). I need 2 browsers for my everyday use because I have two Google accounts and it is annoying to log in and out on one browser. Best solution is to have two browsers permanently logged in. That's what I do on my other laptop.

When I try to install Opera on wattOS, using Debian package from this site http://www.opera.com/download/guide/?os=linux I get error on GDebi saying about amd64 error.

Other methods don't work as well. Manual installation using archive ends up with a message, that Opera package cannot be found. The same happens when I try to install from Debian repository.

How do I install it?

@juanjuanjo
Excellent point. Te same with my installation! Autologin started to work only by moving lines to the proper section!
I am surprised nobody changed it (installation script) for such a long time.

@blaze
I use mostly chrome on Windows and now I've installed wattOS on my netbook so I don't want to change everything.
Do you think Chromium is good enough? One day I tried to use Chromium but I quit. What is the difference between both?

I tried to download Debian package from Google and install it using GDebi but it doesn't seem to work properly. Just asks for password and does nothing :(
