No, root is not required to launch Pale Moon. In fact, doing that is a very dangerous practice.jlost wrote:root is required to launch.

I have Pale Moon running on a 64-bit installation of SolydK, and it's working fine. I use SolydK more than SolydX, but from what I've seen of SolydX it should also work fine on that system.Since SolydX is debian based, I'm a little apprehensive on deciding whether or not to run 64-bit Pale Moon in SolydX.
I know Pale Moon linux works in debian based SolydX&K. It's the user (me) who isn't comfortable using the linux Terminal to install Pale Moon in SolydX.Nigaikaze wrote:@ Night Wing,

I posted command line based instructions in the wiki since they work for everyone, regardless of distro or environment. However, the layman's description is also posted at the top of each command, so you can do them even with the GUI.Night Wing wrote:It's the user (me) who isn't comfortable using the linux Terminal to install Pale Moon in SolydX.
What's easy for you is not easy for me. To wit, I don't understand/comprehend the layman's description. I'm used to Windows, not linux. But, even in Windows, I've never used the command line in the Terminal. So the linux Terminal is a nightmare for me.access2godzilla wrote:However, the layman's description is also posted at the top of each command, so you can do them even with the GUI.
If you need any help or clarification you can as always ask here; however, is copy-pasting commands into a terminal window a very difficult job to accomplish?
