Owen will do the tests to make a list of apt-get installs needed for firefox and vs code

bfayers commented 7 years ago

Pretty sure just apt-get install firefox will get all its dependencies anyway?

bfayers commented 7 years ago

Hm, seems like firefox doesn't like X11 forwarding...

my bad, you need more dependencies than default and a --display parameter.

bfayers commented 7 years ago

For firefox to X forward this is needed:


sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-glx```
bfayers commented 7 years ago

Is this now obsolete because of 821e999 & ca74e9b

OwenBrotherwood commented 7 years ago

xauth is also needed

OwenBrotherwood commented 7 years ago

doc for vs code needed

OwenBrotherwood commented 7 years ago

there is a bug in firefox that means the dependency for libgl1-mesa-glx is not observed
