I wish to watch Netflix. Messages say need latest Firefox. Downloaded and unzipped the firefox-83.0.tar.bz2 file, which produced a large directory, but no readme, and nothing that looks like I can go further. So what now, experts?
Don't try to install that, or you will bork your system, as usual. Delete that directory and firefox-83.0.tar.bz2, and don't ever do those things again.
You are on Tumbleweed, you already have the newest Firefox available. So go to the help/about box in firefox and tell us what version you see there.
Probably too late for all that. I tried the version that required updating the system (zypper dup) and got some failures, including elfutils, waterfox, libpoppler, libstorage -ng-ruby (I think that's the problem one).
Doug, you are in Tumbleweed. Some of us told you that Tumbleweed is for experts, you must expect problems now and then, and you must be able to solve most of them on your own. Now, the only method to update Tumbleweed is "zypper dup", and you must do it about once a week. You can *not* use any other tool or method to update Tumbleweed. Please do remember this.
Trying to start Netflix produces a failure of ruby.ruby2.7. Told me to save logs at /tmp/y2log-udaSxM.tar.xz I did that, but I can't find it.
That's not Netflix, that is YaST complaining. Not related at all. YaST uses ruby, if you bork ruby then YaST fails. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
