NOTE: I checked Firefox Preferences/Applications tab to see why a. Perhaps that's what I should have done (it doesn't matter now since I've already installed Plex as per mr_raider's instructions) but I still want to know why the 'Save File' option doesn't work. I searched and selected the GDebi Package Installer, as per your comment. Anyway, I clicked Save File, not Open with.įor grins, I tried the 'Open With' option.įirst I had to change the default 'Open with Foxit Reader (default)' (see note below). Had I right-clicked, the 'open or save' dialogue box wouldn't have opened.

I doubt I could have stopped my stopwatch on a minute flat if I'd tried to, lol.Īnyway, yes, the process worked perfectly for me. Actually, 1:00.00, which was kind of cool. Including my fumbling (I started my stopwatch when I left-clicked on 'Ubuntu.'), I was looking at my package installer a minute later. When you get to the part where you choose your distro/architecture, are you right-clicking instead of left-clicking?ītW, I went back and repeated the above, only this time I selected the 'Open with.' option. Left-clicking on that shows the file successfully downloaded, and left-clicking on that runs the package installer. When it completed, that little down-pointing arrow on the right of my browser's 'search box' turned blue.

It took a couple minutes to complete whoever it is that has been kind enough to choose to donate their bandwidth to me (by failing to secure it ) must be doing some late-night video streaming. I left-clicked on the OK button and the download happened. Firefox gave me the usual small pop-up 'Open with GDebi Package Installer (default) and (Save File) choices. I got the CHOOSE DISTRIBUTION button, so I left-clicked on that, and then left-clicked on Ubuntu 64-bit (blah blah blah). I got the 'Choose your platform' selector, and left-clicked on Linux. If so, then I should probably post this in the FF forum. Out of curiosity, could someone check to see if they can start the download? (see OP for URL).
