Vivaldi install

[Young Ace]

If you're like me, you received your Pyra after a long wait. An obvious thing to do is to get a good web browser on it. By consensus, that would seem to be Vivaldi, the same 32-bit ARM version used by the Raspberry Pi. This is what ED himself uses.

I tried using a beginner's tutorial which makes use of add-apt-repository to install Vivaldi. Don't make my mistake.

What worked for me was the below. After the first thing, you'll see a bunch of gibberish which you can safely ignore.

wget -qO- https://repo.vivaldi.com/archive/linux_signing_key.pub | gpg --dearmor | sudo tee /usr/share/keyrings/vivaldi-browser.gpg echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/vivaldi-browser.gpg arch=armhf] https://repo.vivaldi.com/stable/deb/ stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/vivaldi.list sudo apt update sudo apt install vivaldi-stable

Note: this was installed on the stock Pyra which comes with Debian Buster.

I manually installed it a while ago it's a fantastic browser for the Pyra, I didn't bother adding the repo, but it's likely the better and less lazy way of doing it.

Just download the browser on a computer, put it on a stick and install it on your pyra with sudo dpkg -i /your-path/vivaldi-stable_xxx_armhf.deb and it will automatically be added to the repository to get updates.
It couldn't be more hassle-free like this.

It's always good to have a stand-alone solution too.
