Ubuntu: XModule does not show as installed on Firefox, works in Chrome

Hello, here is an update on XModules for Linux/Ubuntu and Ui.Vision:

Ui.Vision on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (Noble Numbat)

On Ubuntu 24.04 browser automation with Ui.Vision for Chrome Versions works fine, including the XModules :grinning:

Here is a video of Ui.Vision installation on Ubuntu and a computer vision macro test run:

Known issues with Ui.Vision on Ubuntu:

Ubuntu 24 was released with significant changes to the desktop screenshot functionality compared to previous versions. That is why (at the moment) the desktop screenshot command captureDesktopScreenshot does not work on Ubuntu. And without desktop screenshots all commands that use them e. g. XClick | image.png fail in desktop mode. But in browser mode, screenshots and all computer vision commands work fine, as shown in the videos above.

Ui.Vision for Firefox has some additional issues with the XModules on Ubuntu 24, see the next post below.
