The included script 'widevine-flash_armhf.sh' fetches a ChromeOS image for ARM and extracts the Widevine binary, saving it in a compressed archive. Since it downloads a fairly large file (2Gb+ on disk after download) it is recommended that you run the script on a machine that has plenty of disk space.

To install the resultant archive, issue the following on your ARM machine–after copying over the archive if needed:

sudo tar Cfx / widevine-flash-20200124_armhf.tgz

(Where 'widevine-flash-20200124_armhf.tgz' is updated to reflect the actual name of the created archive)

# This script will find the latest Firefox binary package, download it
# and repackage it into Slackware format.

# I don't use Firefox for regular browsing but it is handy for
# comparative tests against Vivaldi. :P

The following will allow you to test Chrome with a Vivaldi user agent. Shutdown Chrome and start a Terminal (or cmd.exe on Windows), then paste in the code that is relevant for your platform and press “Enter”–you can triple-click to select an entire line.

Testing with Chrome

NOTE: There is little point testing in Vivaldi because old versions already had workarounds for these specific issues and from 2.10 onwards we use a Chrome User Agent string.

Disclaimer: I wrote this script for my own personal usage. It is not officially supported by Opera Software.

Whilst Opera currently only provide .deb packages, it is possible to install Opera on different distros. This install script automates the process.

If you don't already have the script, fetch it like so:

git clone https://gist.github.com/ace4fb780216aa28d922.git

To install the latest stable release, issue:
