It details how to import Google’s GPG key and set up the repository file, noting that omitting the key will trigger a “GPG key not installed” error.
After adding the repo, users run dnf to install or update Brave, with a helpful note about resolving missing dependencies like libappindicator‑gtk3 on slim systems.
The guide concludes by showing how to launch the browser and keep it patched via regular updates, even sharing a real‑world example of troubleshooting on a minimal VM.
The guide walks through installing Opera on AlmaLinux 9, highlighting why the browser is a good fit thanks to its built‑in ad blocker, VPN toggle, and messenger.
It starts by making sure you have the necessary libraries with a simple `dnf install` command, then shows how to grab the latest RPM from Opera’s site using curl before handing it over to DNF for installation.
After installing, the tutorial explains how to confirm the version with `opera --version` and launch it in the background, noting that any missing dependencies can be resolved with a quick repoquery command.
For users who prefer sandboxing or want to avoid RPMs entirely, an alternate Flatpak route is offered, complete with remote‑add and install commands that still deliver the full Chromium experience.
The guide explains how to get the feature‑rich Vivaldi browser onto an AlmaLinux 9 system, starting with a quick update check and internet verification before adding the official RPM repository.
It walks through importing the GPG key, installing the package via dnf, and launching the browser, while noting that the process skips manual confirmation for speed yet can be left to user discretion.
The author also covers common hiccups such as missing libXss or GPG verification failures, offering straightforward fixes like reinstalling dependencies or refreshing the repo file.
For users who prefer Snap, a brief section shows how to set up snapd and install Vivaldi with classic confinement, concluding with an invitation to reach out for help if any unforeseen issues arise.
Installing Microsoft Edge on AlmaLinux 9 involves adding Microsoft’s GPG key and creating a repository file that points to the Edge packages, then using dnf to pull in either the stable or dev build. The tutorial walks through importing the key with rpm, writing a repo configuration into /etc/yum.repos.d, and running `sudo dnf install microsoft-edge-stable` (or replacing the package name for the dev channel). It also covers common hiccups—dependency errors that can be fixed by enabling EPEL, unsigned‑package warnings that usually mean the key import failed, and architecture mismatches where only x86_64 is supported. Once installed you launch Edge with the `microsoft-edge` command, check its version to confirm the update, and are encouraged to reach out if any issue slips through.

This guide walks you through installing or upgrading Nginx on AlmaLinux 9 by first adding the official Nginx repository and importing its GPG key so that you always get secure binaries. After refreshing the DNF cache, you can install either the mainline or stable build—just toggle the `enabled` flag in the repo file if needed—and then enable the service to start on boot. A quick verification with `nginx -v` and optional firewall rules for ports 80 and 443 will confirm that everything is working correctly. The article also warns about common mistakes like pointing the repo at CentOS 8, which can cause 404 errors, and explains how to switch between mainline and stable releases without re‑downloading packages.
The article explains how to set up VirtualBox 6.1 on AlmaLinux 9 without the usual headaches. It walks through ensuring kernel and header alignment, installing essential build tools, adding Oracle’s repo, and finally running the RPM, all with practical commands and rationale behind each step. After installation the guide shows how to load the vboxdrv module, add your user to the vboxusers group, and verify functionality with VBoxManage, while also warning about common pitfalls like SELinux enforcement or using non‑stock kernels. Overall it offers a clear, no‑nonsense sequence that saves time and avoids typical errors for anyone needing that legacy VirtualBox version on AlmaLinux.

The article explains how to add the missing free and non‑free RPM Fusion repositories to an AlmaLinux 9 system so users can access a broader set of drivers, codecs, and software packages. It walks through cleaning the base system with dnf update, installing EPEL first, then pulling the two specific RPMs from the official mirror site, and verifies that they appear in the repository list before enabling them if disabled. After refreshing the cache with dnf clean all and makecache, a quick test install such as gstreamer1‑plugins‑base confirms that packages can be fetched successfully, while optional steps show how to keep the metadata up‑to‑date automatically with systemd timers or cron jobs. The TL;DR section condenses the whole process into seven concise commands, ensuring readers can quickly set up RPM Fusion and start installing desired software without encountering common pitfalls.
The post walks readers through installing PowerShell on Ubuntu 22.04, stressing that you first need Microsoft’s GPG key so APT will accept the packages. After adding the key you update the package index and install the pre‑compiled `powershell` binary, which bundles all the required .NET runtime components so there’s no need to pull in Mono or dotnet separately. Running `pwsh` confirms a successful launch; if it fails double‑check that step three ran correctly, or use the lighter Snap version as an alternative at your own performance cost. The author also shares a real‑world hiccup with a missing libssl dependency after upgrading Ubuntu and explains how reinstalling from the new repo fixes it, reminding users to keep PowerShell current with simple `apt-get` commands.
This quick guide shows how to replace AlmaLinux 9’s default PHP 7.4 with the newer PHP 8.1 from Remi’s repository, which is essential for modern frameworks like Laravel 10 or WordPress themes that need PHP 8.0+. It walks you through enabling EPEL and Remi repos, disabling the built‑in PHP module, turning on the remi-php81 stream, then installing PHP 8.1 along with common extensions such as CLI, FPM, MySQLnd, ZIP, GD, cURL, JSON, PDO, and mbstring. The tutorial also tells you how to verify the installation by checking the command‑line version or viewing a phpinfo page on your web server. Finally, it lists quick fixes for typical issues like missing remi‑php81 packages, leftover PHP modules, or FPM startup failures.
