Does the CPU usage go down if you install a flash blocking addon to FF/Iceweasel? (such as http://flashblock.mozdev.org/ or https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... shstopper/)chrispop99 wrote:With a Pentium 3 laptop running MX-14.2 installed, and four tabs open on Iceweasel each with static content, CPU is around 20%. Changing one of the open tabs to YouTube puts the CPU on 100% all the time even with no video running.
Figures for Firefox are virtually identical. ...

I'm glad I only keep these old boxes for testing!anticapitalista wrote:For watching youtube video, using minitube (or whatever) is a must on old PIII boxes.
You can but it won't survive a reboot. Since NoScript is something installed by the user (I think) then you should be able to keep it around if you enable home persistence. You can do this with the MX-14 LiveUSB by going to the RemasterCC and using the "enable persistence" program to make a homefs file. it is MUCH easier in MX-14.2. Just select "Home Persistence" from the LiveUSB boot menu and you will be guided through the steps. It even works on the LiveCD but you have to select which device to save the persistence files on.cuscotravelservices wrote:Can I install the NoScript Add-On whilst using a Live USB without persistence?
