streamlink is a new fork of livestreamer which can be found in the repos.
Excellent news! I'm no longer messing with Debian. I'm busy libre-tizing a
Debian derivative for my own purposes. I won't say the name as certain people
would blow a gasket. You are right, I may not have tried to invoke it with
the indicator CLI option. Could also be that the app expects a
Sorry, don't recall the exact commands. It's been well over a month ago. I
assume I tried commands from the web page or help file or man page. If I
recall one problem was lack of documentation.
Okay, I installed it in Trisquel 9 (should work/fail just as well in Trisquel
8, or Debian which is what I think andyprough uses). The indicator works when
run in a terminal
$ indicator-sound-switcher
and starts automatically on login. (See screenshot) However, only the
indicator works. No

All is well, I figured that's what that command did before executing it as

It could be that something went wrong installing GNOME then. Hard to say
without troubleshooting.

After installing it, if logging in/out or rebooting doesn't work, what
is the output of

sudo apt remove mate* (or sudo apt remove "anything*") is usually a bad idea.
You may end up removing things you really needed, and keeping things you
didn't want. Anything with "mate" in the name will be gone (such as anything
related to the "material" theme or icons), but a lot of the mate
I couldn't get it to do anything. Not on the desktop, sys tray, command line,
just nothing. Good luck, let us know if you have any success. Seems like a
useful app in theory.

my password, it would seem to load then crash back to the login screen.

They shouldn't interfere with each other. What led you to
5 DE's?? I tried to install Gnome previously without removing MATE, and it
didn't work at all. I also separately tried on trisquel mini without removing
LXDE, same result. How did you install another DE without interfering with
the default?
> I'm not adding Gnome to it just to try one sound applet.
You shouldn't have to. According to the README[1] it provides both an
indicator and a systray applet, which means that it is desktop-agnostic.
I'm not sure why GNUser wasn't able to get it working (I'll see if I can
figure it out later), b
Makes sense, my first experience with GNU/Linux was with Tails and I stuck
with Gnome, I understand the feeling.
Gnome is fine, I've used it plenty of times in the past. Not my cup of tea, I
like a more classic style desktop, but it's fine for what it is. Right now I
already have five other DE's on my laptop, including a couple of large ones.
I'm not adding Gnome to it just to try one sound applet. That
MATE does everything I need, and is lighter in resources. Gnome decided to
become too much of a Beast for me. But I understand some people like yourself
still prefer it, and I respect that. Good thing we have the choice.
Personally I have my system already configured with MATE and won't be
What's the negative stigma around Gnome? Honestly I think it's one of the
sexiest DE's, albeit gobbles up resources like a hungry hippo. I deleted MATE
and installed Gnome on Trisquel and disabled the hotcorner etc..
Hey, thanks. I never got around to thank you, so here it is now. Your reply
actually made me not want to install it, because like you I won't install
Gnome to try it. I will however ask the dev when I can. Thanks.
Actually from what I read many VPN services suffer from DNS leaks (they all
say they don't, but many reports show differently).
Anyway, your suggestion actually helped me, I thank you for that.
Thank you. I didn't know about streamlink, and for now I have an alternate
solution, but it seems interesting (is capable of using Tor or I2P as for
proxy, which is good, and support many different kinds of links).
I will keep it in memory for a need case. Thanks.
