[SOLVED] Mageia 32 Bit excellent! Viber, dropbox, systemd?

I just couldn't wait.

I installed Mageia 32 Bit LXDE on my 10 years old Packard Bell easynote 45 and memory usage until now is unbeaten low. Not even Ubuntu LXDE (64 Bit) comes anywhere near.

Just wondering, if there is an opportunity to get Viber running on Mageia 5.1 32 Bit and if, how ;-)

Also, which Dropbox would I install out of the software center?

I should have named that topic Mageia 32 Bit questions.

Does Mageia 5.1 32/64 Bit use systemd

Hi, please next time use one of the support subforums for support-type queries. The subforum "General discussions about Mageia" is intended for what the title says.
And as a general hint and golden rule: Please only one problem per thread.

For your questions, Mageia does use systemd exclusively since Mageia 3 and offers it since Mageia 2: https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_2_Rel ... nitscripts
For vyber and dropbox please use the search function, that has been covered already several times before.

viewtopic.php?f=7&t=6927#p68076 may help.

Viber is not in an official package so far it seems. This solution is not looking totally elegant but it's working on my 4.4.50-desktop-2.mga5.

Thanks, I trust that would work, I just get Incompatible architecture for rpm [viber.rpm] and that make me think it is a 64 Bit program.

I am going to close this as solved, trusting your links suggestion will work just fine.

Thanks everyone for helping

I use the Caja Dropbox and it works fine.
