As promised, an update on my progress (or lack thereof) in getting Firefox/KDE/Linux to view various video clips in Yahoo's video section. I have 3 systems: A) P3/900MHz/256MB ram Gateway E-4400, B) Dell P3/900MHz/256MB ram C) P4/2.4GHz/512MB ram. A and C were running Suse 10.2, B is running Fedora Core 6. A and C had trouble viewing some video clips at Yahoo, C could view those ok. Now, the update: Sometime during the weekend C started working ok. Not sure what I did, but it worked. I blew away Suse 10.2 and put FC-6 on A and then started a marathon session that wasted most of my weekend. The last thing I saw was Firefox running mplayerplug-in try 3 times to play a stream... I got a burst of sound, then a retry, a burst, etc and after the third try it quit, just like it did while running Suse 10.2. ALSO, the driver for the nvidia MX-400 card that I installed would not compile with either the 2.6.18 original kernel source or the 2.6.20 upgrade. I had to get the legacy nvidia driver from livna.org, which crashes when presented with glx. (that is a separate problem, unrelated to the mplayerplugin issue). FC-6 comes with a generic nv driver which won't do polygons but doesn't crash with glx. So, the original problem is still there in that computer, using a different OS and different file installation locations. I am beginning to think that I have a hardware incompatibility issue instead of a software problem. Suse may be off the hook after all. Gateways of that era are notorious for being marginal, at best. Maybe I'll load XP on it and trade it for another box. Fred -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
