Installing the Frogr application on Linux<\/h2>\n

The application must be set up on your Linux system before you can use the Frogr application to upload your photos to Flickr. To set up the Frogr app on Linux, you\u2019ll need to launch a terminal window.<\/p>\n

Unsure about how you can launch a terminal window on the Linux desktop? You can launch one by pressing Ctrl + Alt + T<\/strong> on the keyboard. Or, search for \u201cTerminal\u201d in the app menu and launch it that way.<\/p>\n

With the terminal window open and ready to use, the installation of Frogr can begin. Using the instructions below that corresponds to the Linux distribution you use, set up Frogr on your computer.<\/p>\n

On Ubuntu Linux, the Frogr application is installable through the \u201cUniverse\u201d software repository. However, you will need to enable the repo first. To enable the \u201cUniverse\u201d repo, enter the add-apt-repository<\/strong> command below.<\/p>\n

\nsudo add-apt-repository universe\n<\/pre>\n
Run the apt update<\/strong> command to refresh Ubuntu\u2019s software sources following the add-apt-repository command. Then, run the apt install<\/strong> command to set up Frogr on your system.<\/p>\n

\nsudo apt-get install frogr\n<\/pre>\n
Want a newer release of the Frogr application on your Debian system? If you\u2019re not happy with how long it takes for Debian to update packages, consider installing Frogr via the Flatpak instructions instead.<\/p>\n
Arch Linux<\/h4>\n
Sadly, the Frogr tool isn\u2019t available in the official Arch Linux software repositories. However, you can get it working through the Arch Linux User Repository. Using the pacman -S<\/strong> command to install the \u201cgit\u201d and \u201cbase-devel\u201d packages to start the installation.<\/p>\n
\nsudo pacman -S git base-devel\n<\/pre>\n
After setting up the two packages on your computer, run the git clone<\/strong> command to download the Trizen AUR helper tool. Then, use CD<\/strong> and makepkg<\/strong> commands to install it on your system.<\/p>\n
\ngit clone https:\/\/aur.archlinux.org\/trizen.git\n<\/pre>\n
\ncd trizen\/\n<\/pre>\n
\nmakepkg -sri\n<\/pre>\n
With the Trizen application set up, you\u2019ll be able to install Frogr on your computer using trizen -S<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
\ntrizen -S frogr\n<\/pre>\n

The Frogr application is available for installation using the dnf install<\/strong> command below if you are using Fedora.<\/p>\n
\nsudo dnf install frogr\n<\/pre>\n

\nsudo zypper install frogr\n<\/pre>\n

To get Frogr working via Flatpak, first set up the runtime. After setting up the Flatpak runtime, you\u2019ll be able to set up Frogr with the two commands below.<\/p>\n
\nflatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https:\/\/flathub.org\/repo\/flathub.flatpakrepo\n<\/pre>\n
\nflatpak install flathub org.gnome.frogr\n<\/pre>\n
Uploading images to Flickr with Frogr<\/h2>\n
Follow the step-by-step instructions below to upload images to your Flickr account with the Frogr.<\/p>\n
Step 1:<\/strong> Launch the Frogr application on the Linux desktop by searching for it in the application menu. Once it is open, you will see an \u201cAuthorize frogr\u201d window. Click on the \u201cOK\u201d button to begin the authorization.<\/p>\n
Step 2:<\/strong> Frogr will open up a new tab in your default browser. In this new tab, a Flickr page will appear. From here, click on the \u201cOk, I\u2019ll authorize it\u201d button. Then, copy the authorization code Flickr gives you and paste it into Frogr.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Step 3:<\/strong> Once Frogr is connected to Flickr, you\u2019ll see \u201cConnected as\u201d followed by your username. From here, find the \u201c+\u201d button and click on it with the mouse.<\/p>\n
Step 4:<\/strong> Selecting the \u201c+\u201d button inside of the Frogr app will open up the \u201cSelect a picture\u201d window. Browse for the picture you wish to upload to your Flickr account in this window.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Keep in mind, if you wish to upload more than one picture to your Flickr account at once, hold down the Ctrl<\/strong> button while clicking with the mouse. Doing this will allow you to select multiple photos on your Linux PC at a time.<\/p>\n
Step 5:<\/strong> Once all photos are added to your Frogr app and ready for upload, select your photos. To select one image at a time in Frogr, use the mouse. Alternatively, if you wish to select all photos at once, press Ctrl + A<\/strong> on the keyboard.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
When all image files are selected, click on the upload button to begin the upload process. Uploading shouldn\u2019t take that long. When the upload is complete, you\u2019ll be able to see your newly uploaded photos on your Flickr account.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
