New Iron-Version: 5.0.377 Beta for Linux

Iron 5.0.377 for Linux is ready for download now. You can get all the new features of the 5.0-Line like the integrated content blocker and the improved performance.

Further we added adblocking and User-Agent switching, which is already known from our windows-versions. Just use UA.ini and adblock.ini for activating this features. The files must be in the current Iron"working dir".

Downloads:
http://www.srware.net/downloads/iron-linux.tar.gz (32-Bit)
http://www.srware.net/downloads/iron-linux-64.tar.gz (64-Bit)

We will also release a "P2-version" for older CPUs soon.

Using Ubuntu 9.10 x86, this version of Iron does not work.
The error is:

/opt/iron-linux/iron: /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.11' not found (required by /opt/iron-linux/iron)

ubuntu 9.10 has glibc 9.10.1

I guess this runs only on Ubuntu 10.4 ?
please make it compatible for older versions.

With a (nearly fresh) Debian Testing , this version doesn't work either.

I have the same error:

Code: Select all

./iron: /lib/i686/cmov/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.11' not found (required by ./iron)

Code: Select all

dpkg -l libglib2.0-*

ii  libglib2.0-0                         2.24.1-1                             The GLib library of C routines
ii  libglib2.0-cil                       2.12.9-3                             CLI binding for the GLib utility library 2.12
ii  libglib2.0-data                      2.24.1-1                             Common files for GLib library
What is strange is that a friend with also a Debian testing have it working.
I'll try to find what she did to make it work.

I have confirmed that this version runs only on Ubuntu 10.04. On older versions the application exits with the error I posted before.

Is it just me or is anyone else unable to use the built in "content blocker" - adblock.ini??

I've put adblock.ini in iron-linux, in ~./config/chromium, and in ~./config/chromium/Default. All of which have no effect.

There seems to be a similar question in the German forum - http://www.srware.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=1499 - but, I didn't see a resolution. Anyone else have an idea???

Thanks for the new version, this is the first version that is stable enough for me to use.

One problem I have found is that Backspace and Shift+Backspace keyboard shortcuts do not work (I'm running the 64bit version.)

Thanks again.

The backspace-action has been removed. AFAIK in Chromium 5 (but I'm not sure).
Try this extension to enable backspace for navigation:

Bye...

I am experiencing a similar problem under Sabayon Linux (which is Gentoo based, btw), namely when I try to start Iron I get the following error instead:

Code: Select all

./iron: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.11' not found (required by ./iron)
Sabayon is a pretty bleeding edge distro, but currently the latest version of the glibc package I can find is 2.10.1. Maybe you should try to compile Iron with glibc 2.10.1 instead of 2.11, if possible.
