Whoops - 10.3 86_64. Yes I installed codecs as soon as I had 10.3 running. Fairly sure I have used youtube since then. Konq is ok on the site too but decided to lock up at one point - might be nothing to do with youtube. Lot's of firefox windows up and my isp is hopeless sometimes around 6pm.

You tried with firefox? A stupid question: The youtube video was loaded?

I just use konqueror to browse my files, sorry, I don´t have much experience with konqueror and Youtube.

What has been updated?

Running here on 2.0.0.14 on x86_64 and it works fine. In order to diagnose, we need to know specific versions and information about what you're doing. What got updated, what changed, etc.

Jim I'm running exactly the same version. Can't give details of updates but seem to remember a firefox update which must have been 2.0.0.14

As far as firefox is concerned I have FireFTP 0.97.3, DOM inspector 1.8.1.14, pdf download 1.0.1.1, brit dictionary 1.19 and qtl 10 a language translator that I added my self. Beagle is disabled. If I hit update on the add ons window beagle wants to update but can't as the location is read only. I reported a bug on seamonkey some time ago - need to use the web as root for some updates. That's supposed to be fixed firefox >2 John 10.3 x86_64 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

You mean that updates no longer need "root" permission to install? Things are changing too fast. I haven't seen this!

Pass on that but the seamonkey people suggested that was the case. And firefox most definitely will not work here. No sign of the flash player in the addons. Must be on my machine otherwise konq couldn't play them either. Also note that history doesn't log all pages visited.

/usr/lib/browser-plugins/libflashplayer.so /usr/share/doc/packages/flash-player /usr/share/doc/packages/flash-player/README

note: x86_64 with 32-bin ff and flash-player

and konq works here also.

Thanks. That has fixed it. I downloaded a yum from adobe. Launched it and yast got lost in space. Did a right click install with yast and all went ok. The notes on this list suggest continually adding to mails. That way people can follow the progress and see the fix if there is one. Me I keep some mails off lists for ref and as many snip them in way that looses reference to the subject I have to edit and add to them sometimes before sending them to myself. :) John -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

odd, I don't see that: http://en.opensuse.org/OpenSUSE_mailing_list_netiquette#Quoting

In a round about way it suggests that sigs should only contain a name but then reluctantly allows a limited extended sig. On other mailing list I usually use the version of software that I am using as part of my sig. On cups it would include my cups version too and so on. All relevant information.

In fact, I read the exact opposite. Especially the quoting of sigs is rediculous.

no one will fault you for how you handle your own storage space unless you specifically ask. But please defer to the list decorum.

I should be in bed - as should Carlos :) but for one reason or the other I'm not. I based my comments on the pages I read while joining the list. To be useful the final mail must contain the problem and the solution otherwise there is no point in searching list archives. The word fixed helps too and who am I to delete the source of the fix. Anyway thanks to Patrick. I've asked a few suse specific questions on here and this is the 1st time I've had a useful answer - even though it may not be suse specific issue. One question resulted in a huge volume of mail that had no relation what so ever to the original question. That sort of thing has much more effect on the volume of traffic and makes the thread useless too. It happens from time to time. eg what's the point in the current IRC thread - basically a total lack of discipline in relation to what this list is intended for.

No.

We are telling you that when you reply you should delete as much of the original email you are replying to is possible. Specially the signature of the previous mail should be deleted - and you are not doing so.

He also told you that it is not true what you said "The notes on this list suggest continually adding to mails". It is rather the contrary.

Not neccessarily. If the subject is clear enough, then it's probably not neccessary to copy the entire thread. Just the meat of the current part of the discussion is neccessary

I find it generally unnecessary to copy the entire thread; that's what online archives are for. Or gmane. They contain the entire thread and generally preserve the threading.

I've got a ton of plugins installed as well, no issue there. Do you have the nspluginwrapper installed? That's necessary for Flash to work on x86_64. Does about:plugins show anything flash related?
