<OT> NOT MY PROBLEM. I've been told that it is a form of Aspergers Communication Skills - which I make NO APOLOGY FOR. All MSFN members are "opinionated", myself included. My opinion never trumps yours. Your opinion never trumps mine. Or any other member that anyone here decides "today I'm going to publicly argue with so-and-so, because I'm bored and need something to do and it only walks right up to the line of violating Forum Rules without actually crossing that line." <OT> Agreed!

@nicolaasjan I have listed your post with the Dutch language pack in the second post of this thread so that it can be found more easily later. I hope it was in your interest. Greetings, AstroSkipper

My German language pack for New Moon 28 - Fixed - Part 3 My last German language pack 28.10.0rc4 from this post had to be fixed again. I found another issue under Einstellungen -> Datenschutz some weeks ago. Here is a screenshot to demonstrate this issue: I have fixed this issue and assigned the number 28.10.0rc5 to the new, corrected version. Here are two screenshots taken from the fixed version in the most recent version of New Moon 28 (2024-01-31): And here is the download link of the updated, German language package in version 28.10.0rc5 for the more recent versions of New Moon 28 (issue observed starting with the version palemoon-28.10.7a1.win32-git-20240120-d849524bd-uxp-a62d808d09-xpmod): https://www.mediafire.com/file/xty66noengy0ktg/de-28.10.0_RC5.xpi/file Greetings from Germany, AstroSkipper

Because Supermium does not have a TITLE BAR. While not big to you, that IS big to a LOT of folks (maybe that's an XP Thing [which Supermium targets], it does seem to be the XP Crowd but who knows?). As I've pointed out, I HAVE HIGH HOPES FOR SUPERMIUM. It's unfortunate that when we DO get an "ungoogled" (as I believe it is still in-the-works), we won't get a v115 "ungoogled" but rather a v130 or whatever "real" Chrome is at at-the-time. But I'm sure that Ungoogled Supermium v130 will become my DEFAULT six or ten years from now when "real" Chrome is at v190 and OLDER BROWSERS (ie, THIS THREAD) simply fill the bill for me better. Just like v86 is perfectly fine for me when everyone else is running 120+.

Just FYI: not sure off-hand if this works with the Supermium installer (I won't be trying this browser until/unless I can have it fully "ungoogled"/spyware-free), but if it's like the normal [ungoogled-]Chromium installer, running it with the --system-level command-line option will install the browser under Program Files.

Jody, can I trouble you to compare the brightness? Sorry for the delicate question, how's your eyesight? To me, Supermium is approx. 25 percent brighter than any other browser, let's say the ordinary Ungoogled, thus leading to the extreme eye fatigue. No matter what flags I use.

Friend, add a dedicated GPU to your PC, it will greatly extend the overall Supermium speed. Could be found for cheap, or even for free. 2-5 bucks card examples would include 8600 GT, GT1030 (15 Bucks), ATI 6510 (2 bucks), 10 bucks would be smth like GT730, 3 bucks for GT610 and so on, all are low power consumption.

@win32, I have a serious issue to report. I can't pass my full list of flags. The browser only accepts a much shorter, reduced variant. I can 100% confirm, it's not some exact flags it doesn't want, it's their overall length in cmd. OS - Vista x64 6003 without Kernel. Browser also x64.

The ugly lumpen icon is usually removed with this startup flag. --hide-avatar-button I don't know whether it's still valid here, in this chromium fork.

I experimented with various options to boot Windows Vista from Windows 10's Windows Boot Manager in UEFI mode and I done it today . - On VMware, I created 2 separate partitions (one for 10 and one for Vista) and installed Windows 10 in UEFI mode. - Then, I set Boot policy to Legacy from Standard to show Windows Boot Manager in text mode. - Then I installed Windows Vista on the 2nd partition and it gives 0x0000001E error (obviously .). - When I press F10 while Vista's boot entry is highlighted, I added /DEBUG /DEBUGPORT=COM1 and /BAUDRATE=115200 to boot arguments (or select Debugging Mode from F8 menu,). - When I did the above things and then pressed ENTER to boot system, somehow, Windows Vista BOOTS with Windows 10's Windows Boot Manager in UEFI mode! It finished SysPrep phase and I'm able to reach desktop. - When I remove DEBUGPORT and BAUDRATE, it gives 0x0000001E bugcheck error. - Also removing BAUDRATE and then L changing DEBUGPORT to USB or, L changing DEBUGPORT to 1394 and setting CHANNEL to 1 also causes 0x0000001E bugcheck error. - Without DEBUG option, adding /DEBUGPORT=COM1 /BAUDRATE=115200 also boots system. - Also, without DEBUG and BAUDRATE option, system boots. - So, I think, DEBUGPORT=COM1 to COM4 does all this thing, I guess . - Then, I tried that thing on a real machine (on my spare laptop, Casper CGA-P847, has text-based Phoenix UEFI BIOS.) and also boots with it! I will write updates to inform you about all things about that. UPDATE 1: I don't know if it is caused from debugging parameters or Windows Boot Manager itself, Windows Media Sharing just won't work. It freezes the system instantaneously. UPDATE 1.1: It looks like debugging parameters causing freeze on system while Windows Media Sharing is open . UPDATE 1.2: Yup, debugging options definitely cause issues with this. I even tried with Windows Vista's original Windows Boot Manager in UEFI mode on VMware. When I disable Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service, the system will boot even when a device is shared. But when I reboot the system, re-enable Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service and when I click start Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service, the system will instantly freeze. UPDATE 2: When I debug output in VMware using serial port, I saw repeating output like this: This pattern repeats over and over again and it's 85 hexadecimal long. And these repeated dots are 7C hexadecimal long.

I performed the test on two different computers (AMD quads) and yet it flows better under 360chrome when scrolling, draging the Rover's camera I didn't try it on Haswell CPU though....

Extensions and custom buttons for UXP browsers – Corrections, modifications, adjustments, and special recommendations I am a fan of extensions and custom buttons. That is one of the reasons I already created the thread “Mypal 68 in Windows XP – Custom Buttons and Extensions”. This thread here is a place where I will post about our beloved, legacy extensions and custom buttons for the UXP browsers such as New Moon 28, Serpent 52 and so on. The purpose of this thread is to easily find corrected, modified, adjusted, or highly recommended extensions and furthermore, custom buttons, too. I couldn't find any thread here on MSFN dedicated to extensions and custom buttons for UXP browsers. The threads “My Browser Builds (Part 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5)” are too extensive and confusing to find information about this stuff, although there are also posts about them. Moreover, these threads are dedicated to the browsers themselves and not to their extensions, and certainly not to custom buttons. Everyone is invited to post their own corrected, modified, adapted, or highly recommended extensions or custom buttons here. The main idea is to enhance the functionality of our beloved, legacy browsers and ensure that this remains the case in the future. In the second post of this thread, the reader will find an alphabetical list of all posted extensions. In the third post, the reader will find an alphabetical list of all posted custom buttons and additionally right behind, an alphabetical list of all posted tips, special scripts and plugins. All entries of the provided lists are linked to their contributions here in this thread. Last not least, some additional sources where legacy extensions and custom buttons can be found: Pale Moon Add-ons - Extensions – Link: https://addons.palemoon.org/extensions/ Basilisk Add-ons - Extensions – Link: https://addons.basilisk-browser.org/extensions/ Classic Add-ons Archive – This catalogue contains 93,598 versions of 19,450 Firefox add-ons created by 14,274 developers over the past 15 years using XUL/XPCOM technology.

Welcome and greetings from Germany! AstroSkipper

Yep, the problem still exists. The forum will not let you have "b oot.ini" (without the space) in your post.

The purpose of this topic is laid out by jaclaz in the topic's title.

one of the several reasons why I don't like W7 at all.... https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/how-to-manually-arrange-folders-in-windows-7/91d630f0-c18d-4eaa-889b-e0ecaffa5a94 is there a good file manager out there similar or with the simplicity of the XP built-in one ???

I got such report elsewhere and it will be fixed in next build. workaround: extract this DLL from previous build.

Thanks for the kind words, man.

I couldn't find any visual theme for Supermium 121 akin to this one. https://msfn.org/board/topic/184266-arcticfoxienotheretoplaygames-360chrome-v1351030-rebuild-7/?do=findComment&comment=1239611 all of the ''classic'' style themes available in the chrome web store look awful to my eyes.

This was in response to Dixel's inquiry. Maybe he will see it. I'm good though

If brightness bothers you, try Dark Reader -- an extension that turns black text on white background to light text on dark background, e.g. from this to this. Might make the browser slightly laggier with just 2GB, but i doubt it.

That certainly could be true, but I compared these browsers (Supermium and MyPal 68) just now with Explorer++, Softmaker Office and Serpent 52, and I'm not noticing a difference. All I can say is that out of all the options on this rather ill-equipped Vista notebook, Supermium really does run well. Very snappy considering I only have 2 GB or memory.

so other users getting same problem: https://msfn.org/board/topic/185966-my-browser-builds-part-5/?do=findComment&comment=1259648 so posting embedding links with a preview box causes HTTP 403.

It happened to me recently, reason was because I tried to insert Link (replace URL with text) into my post, I had to post without the Link and edit my post and add the Link afterwards.

Naah, you didn't overstep at all, just having a bit of fun at the way you phrased it, don't worry. coot.ini jaclaz

How any of this related to Supermium!??!??!? Folks, let's not inflate this important topic, thanks in advance.

I'm not suggesting it's a DEFCON situation. It's my habit to ask. I'm an Admin @ Sysnative.com and a Moderator at PCHelpForum and we work, in between the interesting things to do, 24/7/365. It keeps the readership happy. It's not a big deal, I was simply trying to help. No worries! I apologize if I overstepped.

Glad you guys are having good luck with Vista, but sadly I can't say this is the case with XP and I'm sort of stuck with XP until this machine (DELL Optiplex Pentium D with 3GB RAM) finally craps out which could be any day now and expected. I can't complain my computers have been through the mill. As far as chrome goes, NHTPG 360 is about all my computer can (barely) handle. I'll try with those new files tomorrow and see if Supermium is usable - I'll keep an open mind. EDIT: fixed typos

boot.imi

... And where one would put the chairs? All in jest, as you said , it's quite obvious you intended to type "tabs" there... Take good care ...

The reason why I investigated the restart behaviour of these browsers is that I have created various restart custom buttons (JavaScript) for Firefox-based browsers in the past and currently have made one that performed a normal restart when left-clicked and additionally deletes the startup cache when middle-clicked. I also extracted the restart code, which is used by New Moon 28, from its source code and had a look at it. But somehow I get the feeling that manually deleting the startup cache is not really necessary any longer, as the browser seems to do this on its own in most cases when restarting it.

just about 500 MB (zero extensions). I removed the user data folder and started from scratch just in case.

Hi, I do not face any xul.dll crashes when loading videocardz.com on Serpent 52.9, however, it is indeed very heavy, and it sometimes hangs Serpent 52.9 for a moment, before it goes back normally.

I tried this myself on both Supermium 121 1st release and the hot-fix release. I restared the computer just in case but the memory usage is still the same

boot

Thanks for the links! I totally forgot about looking there for possible command line options.

Well done! Your Dutch colleagues will be delighted with such a service. BTW, I already mentioned this issue here two weeks ago: https://msfn.org/board/topic/185966-my-browser-builds-part-5/?do=findComment&comment=1258614 I have fixed my German language pack the day I posted this issue. This corrected language pack has been in testing mode since then. I will post it when testing mode is over, and all is definitely working. So far, no further issues.

Add startup flags to disable acceleration, or simply go to chrome://flags/ and search for acceleration, then disable all occurrences, relaunch.

No, as far I know, I remember I had that disappearing font issue evn with 360EE, the only way to get rid of it is to have a fully/properly functional sandbox or that flag.

He is "joking". It's his "jokes". Just try to ignore. The more you react, the more off-topic nonsense from him we'll see here. Thanks for understanding,

and by then the version 122 will likely break other things. https://msfn.org/board/topic/185045-supermium/page/22/#comment-1259251

I missed out this rebuild 9

Well done! I have not been able to find any useful information about these strange strings either.

Thanks! Good to know.

Thank you! So far all is good. All my four IDE hard disk in my Windows XP computer are in an excellent condition. And I have two Dawicontrol SATA PCI cards on reserve. But I hope I do not have to use them. I think I would even rather change the motherboard.
