[opensuse] Websites that don't accept my Flash installation
by Stan Goodman 10 Oct '08

10 Oct '08

Will someone be kind enough to visit thesite at <http://www.sundayisrael.com/?gclid=COSC6bOKlZYCFQ6S1QodeyjVDw> and see if it accepts your Flash installation without complaint? And if not, could you suggest a reason, and maybe a solution? The site gives me only the message "You need to upgrade your Flash Player". This is not unique to this particular site; many sites give the same reaction, although most have no such problem. Here is the relevant paragraph in the About: plugins screen: ***** Shockwave Flash File name: npwrapper.libflashplayer.so Shockwave Flash 9.0 r124 MIME Type Description Suffixes Enabled application/x-shockwave-flash Shockwave Flash swf Yes application/futuresplash FutureSplash Player spl Yes ***** The system is openSuSE v10.3 x86_64. The browser is Firefox v2.0.0.17, but the phenomenon has been around for a long time, through lots of FF updates. -- Stan Goodman Qiryat Tiv'on Israel -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

I tried to figure out what I need to do to get be able to install the latest file and be able to view DVDs again. I have a sound track, for example, I'd like to get off of one DVD.....NADA!!

[opensuse] changing file name sorting
by Duaine & Laura Hechler 10 Oct '08

10 Oct '08

Here is a file list of song titles - that I think should be in a different order. Is there a way to change the sorting ? In most other systems, and the way I was taught, sorting was done literally meaning: I_G....... I_L........ I'd.......... I'll........... I'm........ Not the way they are here - which appears to be ignoring special characters file:///home/family/fvbbs.org/chapter_library/I'd_Give_The_World_To_Be_In_My_Hometown_7516.pdf file:///home/family/fvbbs.org/chapter_library/I'd_Love_To_Meet_That_Old_Sweetheart_Of_Mine_7188.pdf file:///home/family/fvbbs.org/chapter_library/I_Got_Rhythm_111062.pdf file:///home/family/fvbbs.org/chapter_library/I'll_Be_A_Song_And_Dance_Man_Again_7654.pdf file:///home/family/fvbbs.org/chapter_library/I'll_Be_Seeing_You_7344.pdf file:///home/family/fvbbs.org/chapter_library/I'll_Take_You_Home_Again_Kathleen_8058.pdf file:///home/family/fvbbs.org/chapter_library/I_Love_A_Jolson_Song_7546.pdf file:///home/family/fvbbs.org/chapter_library/I_Love_My_Baby_My_Baby_Loves_… file:///home/family/fvbbs.org/chapter_library/I_Love_You_Truly_200391.pdf file:///home/family/fvbbs.org/chapter_library/I'm_Alone_Because_I_Love_You_7245.pdf file:///home/family/fvbbs.org/chapter_library/I'm_Always_Chasing_Rainbows_7652.pdf file:///home/family/fvbbs.org/chapter_library/I_Never_See_Maggie_Alone_7127… file:///home/family/fvbbs.org/chapter_library/I_Want_A_Girl_7005.pdf file:///home/family/fvbbs.org/chapter_library/I_Wanta_Sing_Not_Dance_7147.p… file:///home/family/fvbbs.org/chapter_library/I_Want_To_Wish_You_A_Merry_Ch… file:///home/family/fvbbs.org/chapter_library/I_Wonder_Who's_Kissing_Her_Now_8088.pdf -- Duaine Hechler Piano, Player Piano, Pump Organ Tuning, Servicing & Rebuilding Reed Organ Society Member Florissant, MO 63034 (314) 838-5587 dahechler(a)charter.net www.hechlerpianoandorgan.com -- Home & Business user of Linux - 10 years -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Zypper deleted (WTF???!!!)
by Rodney Baker 10 Oct '08

10 Oct '08

Hi all. For some reason, after the last round of auto updates (or software installation, I'm not sure which), zypper has been deleted from my system. I certainly did not do this myself! The last entry in zypper.log was on 10.06.08 at 21:57 local time (which probably doesn't help anyone). Some time after this, zypper has been erased. Running 'which zypper' (as root) reveals no zypper found anywhere in the path. This means that I can't run online updates or any of the Yast package management plugins. RPM still seems to be installed - at least that's something. Can someone point me to the zypper rpm so I can reinstall it please? I may have to resolve some dependencies manually if anything else has been deleted that shouldn't have been... Thanks, -- =================================================== Rodney Baker VK5ZTV rodney.baker(a)iinet.net.au ===================================================
