@Alkaris That is a Linux issue, not a Vivaldi one.
I earlier years Mozilla had provided a free location service for Linux users, but Mozilla decided to exclude other browsers.

Unfortunately there are not free services to use for Linux distributions.

And the per-install/annual costs for these paid location services is currently unbearable for Vivaldi to add in browser.

@mib2berlin Yeah, i already have that overwritten.
I can't really be changing between integrated and dedicated gpu, as every time I run optimus-manager, I have to logout and login again.
Also, it's really common for me to be running something that requires the Nvidia and vivaldi OpenGL at the same time 😕

Thanks for the help anyway 😃

@LMMV said in DRM is not working:

I often tell people to use Linux as the OS and Windows applications with Wine as much as possible. It's what I do. Why? Because Linux applications expire. I have lost many. Windows applications never expire. I have dozens of them, some as old as 15 to 26 years. I still use a dictionary bought in 1994. Excellent dictionary. None of the current garbage has the same quality.

I'm surprised that Wine runs with Windows 95/98 apps - but OK!

But I am giving up on Vivaldi. Honestly, thank you.

No problem, enjoy whichever browser you do choose. 👍

@jiujitsuajusco
Hi, some apps/extensions simply not work correctly on Vivaldi after an update of Vivaldi or the extension.
Please add a link to this app/extension and your OS and Vivaldi version.
Instead of using an app you can try to open Instagram as web page and add this to a web panel, panels emulate a mobile device.

@wadesmart said in Url goes to google first:

When you click on any link and watch the address bar you see the google part before any url

So you can open URLs first without the redirect?
Like opening one of the default links on the start page?
Only clicking a URL makes it redirect through Google?

Are you able to make a screen recording showing the issue happening in a clean profile? Try also opening the Developer Tools (F12), then click the network tab there, before making a recording.

If you can, save a HAR file:
https://support.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/4408828867098-Generating-a-HAR-file-for-troubleshooting
Follow the instructions for Chrome, it's the same.

Obviously you should do this in a clean profile so nothing interferes and network requests do not contain any sensitive data like cookies. Creating a clean profile for testing is explained in the troubleshooting docs.

If you share the HAR file somewhere I can have a look.

@TbGbe Updated from 510 to 515, no change.

@pvbernhard I wish this was how sessions worked. There is currently no possibility to automate this in a meaningful way, sadly.

In a perfectly working setup, we would be able to switch sessions with quick commands alone (no dialog, just arguments) and the currently open session would automatically save and close when opening a saved session. Miles away from this workflow.

You can get the fingerprint from the public key you download in the first line. Grab the file, and run this on it:

gpg --show-keys --with-fingerprint linux_signing_key.pub

The output for me is:

gpg --show-keys --with-fingerprint linux_signing_key.pub pub rsa4096 2021-01-06 [SC] [expires: 2023-02-25] CB63 144F 1BA3 1BC3 9E27 79A8 FEB6 023D C27A A466 uid Vivaldi Package Composer KEY07 <[email protected]> sub rsa4096 2021-01-06 [E] [expires: 2023-02-25]

which means

CB63 144F 1BA3 1BC3 9E27 79A8 FEB6 023D C27A A466

would be the fingerprint.

To be sure it's the right one, you need a secondary source of information. You can find it on https://help.vivaldi.com/desktop/install-update/obtaining-official-builds/ where it says

key ID that should end with “C27AA466”.

@Dancer18 Can’t reproduce. Try to do it from a fresh profile and provide steps.

@dedeco On Linux i use a Standalone install script to be installed to a separate folder with its own config (i need that to run different Vivaldi Daily builds).
You could use a shell script and copy your profile you want to test to the Standalone config folder.

Standalone script: https://gist.github.com/ruario/8f648cc3069d1a55d9c8
How to copy profiles with shell should not be a high barrier for you, isnt it? 😉

⚠️ Disabling the sandbox is not recommended by Vivaldi Team as it weakens security.

@mib2berlin Yes, the problem seems to be on my Linux Mint installtion. I don't see the same behavior on my Windows installations.

Done. I suspect it isn't vivaldi, but some xdg-open or preferred application craziness on my system, but you never know.

@RickBuxton
Hi, I guess you are right, the last desktop CPU is 20 years old.
Maybe you can get a core2duo system for 20-30 €, it should also be 20-30 times faster than your Pentium system.

Have a nice day, mib

@jsaponara Now you can program/test/read about the robot!? Fine. 🙂
