Slimjet-portable : Now 64-bit ONLY – v38.0.0.0
Morning, gang.
Following some info from Fred (thanks, Fred!):-
https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic. … 521#p33521
…..I’ve finally realised where I was going wrong with my attempts to make a portable version of Flashpeak’s Slimjet browser. I was “over-thinking” it, as usual; the simplest solution is, of course, always the best.
Couple of other slightly modded ‘workarounds’ for Slimjet’s somewhat fussy launch requirements, but nothing yrs truly can’t handle. All sorted.
We’re currently at v38.0.0.0.
(For those who need to know, I haven’t included the WideVine module in the 32-bit build. There’s no point, since 32-bit WideVine is now deprecated and no longer functional. Anything that needs DRM decoding isn’t going to run here. Sign o’ the times, I’m sorry to say.)
Fear not! YouTube runs as well as it ever did….. At least Flashpeak have managed to get a 32-bit, Chromium 90-based build running. That’s more than you can say for SRWare of Germany, whose 32-bit “legacy” Iron download is now ‘pinned’ at v88…..
——————————————
As with my other, recent portable builds, you have the ability to add a MenuEntry to launch the portable from wherever you’ve located it. The “MenuReadMe” explains how it works.
Usual instructions. Download; unzip; move the portable’s directory wherever you like. Then, click to enter, followed by clicking on the appropriate ‘LAUNCH’ script…..the “LaunchReadMe” will explain which one is required for your use-case. Add a MenuEntry IF you want one.
For anyone who would like to try them out, both arches will always be found here:-

Choose the one you require. See what ya think. Enjoy!
Mike.
