hey guys i need application similar to Internet download manager(IDM) For Linux.
That Can download files form any site Plus can download/Grab videos from any site.
 
Yes, it is a distro based on Ubuntu and very light. This program will go perfect. I use Xubuntu and it has never failed me .
Anyway, if you use Firefox, you have an extension "Video DownloadHelper" it´s doing the same job. In Chrome or Chromium you have "GetThemAll downloader".I do not know if it is compatible with Linux.
By the way, do you know when it will end maintenance Bodhi Linux ?, talking about days , weeks ... but it seems that nobody is going to take charge of the project , it would be a shame because it is perhaps the prettiest distro today.
Kind regards

It's probably for your kernel version , I see in http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/latest-linux-beta-driver.aspx :
System Requirements: Linux kernel 2.6 or above (up to 3.13)
I think your kernel version is superior.
What really matters is the video driver , what else can do without and it is easy to find

You should start thinking about looking for another distro that is best served . I see that in Bodhi Linux Web:
Notice
Bodhi services (Package Repository, Appcenter, and Forums) will be down for maintenance from 10pm Eastern until midnight.

If you like lightweight desktops Xfce recommend you let me so if you like Ubuntu , Xubuntu would be a great option.
If you prefer stability at low power consumption , look Manjaro , of course not have as much software as Ubuntu and its derivatives .

Kind regards .
