Docs for Andronix app 8.x (Classic)

You are reading docs for Andronix app 8.x. Update to app 10 for the new installer: Start here.

This page shows you how to install Firefox and Chromium in your Andronix distro. Find your distro under each browser and run the matching command.

If you have an armv7-based device, browsers might fail to work for unknown reasons.
These instructions assume that you have started your distro and are inside the distro shell (not the Termux shell).

Firefox

Run the command for the distro you're using to install Firefox:

Ubuntu 18/ Ubuntu 20/ Debian/ Kali Linux

apt install firefox-esr -y

Arch / Manjaro

pacman -S firefox --noconfirm

Void Linux

xbps-install -S firefox

Alpine

Sadly, Alpine does not provide Firefox for ARM devices as of now.

Chromium

Run the command for the distro you're using to install Chromium:

Ubuntu / Ubuntu 19 / Debian / Kali Linux

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AndronixApp/AndronixOrigin/master/Uninstall/ubchromiumfix.sh && bash ubchromiumfix.sh
If Chromium doesn't launch from the application menu, try one of the following commands in a terminal inside VNC:
chromium --no-sandbox
chromium-browser --no-sandbox

Arch / Manjaro

pacman -S chromium --noconfirm

Void Linux

Sadly, Chromium is not available for Void Linux.

Alpine
