How can I install moonlight for Chrome in Ubuntu? (Answered)

Steps to install Moonlight

Download the .crx file from here

Drag and drop the downloaded novell-moonlight-3.99.0.3-i586.crx file into Google chrome browser.

If you get any error mentioning "Apps extensions and user scripts cannot be added from this website"

open chrome://chrome/extensions/ in a new tab and now repeat the step 2

Hope this helps.

p.s. Take a look at the Moonlight project page http://www.go-mono.com/moonlight/download.aspx http://askubuntu.com/questions/235532/how-can-i-install-moonlight-for-chrome-in-12-04

Root ICS V30a LG Optimus 2x

I have been trying to root my LG Optimus 2x wich I previously upgraded to the stock LG ICS but with no success until I fount the following instructions. I tried them and they worked for me nicely.


They were in Spanish so I have them here in English as well.


A) Download O2X-nVFlash-bootloader_unlock_v30a + CWM6.zip and unzip it.
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B1EW3mRxeMIeOGlvSEFvMWdrRmc

B) Set the mode mobile nVFlash
- Turn off the handset and press the VOL-and VOL + while connecting the USB
- Windows will detect a new device (APX) install the driver that came with the recovery

C) Open a CMD in Windows and go to the path where you unzipped the O2X-nVFlash-bootloader_unlock_v30a + CWM6.zip and executes the first command:

nvflash --bct E1108_Hynix_512MB_H8TBR00U0MLR-0DM_300MHz_final_emmc_x8.bct --bl fastboot.bin --download 4 bootloader.bin

D) Once the message has been "... sent successfully" and returned the prompt (C: \ .....) disconnects the phone, wait 10 seconds and put it back in so nVFlash.

E) From the previous CMD and run the same route


nvflash --bct E1108_Hynix_512MB_H8TBR00U0MLR-0DM_300MHz_final_emmc_x8.bct --bl fastboot.bin --download 15 recovery.img


F) Once the message has been "... sent successfully" and returned the prompt (C: \ .....) put the phone off the SD card and battery.

G) Root.zip SuperSU Download and start the phone in ClockworkMod.

H) the following:

-> Mounts and storage
-> Mounts USB storage (then connect your phone to your PC and copy it to the external SD SuperSU Root.zip file)
-> (Once copied) umount USB storage

-> Install zip from sdcard
-> Choose zip from sdcard (look for the SuperSU Root.zip and install it)
-> + + + + Go Back + + + + (Beware! will if you want to FIX root permissions, you say YES. Will ask twice.)
-> Reboot system now.

And that's it! to enjoy the V30A

*** This method I've tested and works perfectly.
