Strange behavior in konqueror and kmail
While in the above two programs, pressing the ctrl key brings up many 1/4 inch yellow boxes with different letters in them over the top of the application. Pressing the alt key removes them. Doesn't appear to happen on other apps. I little bit annoying, wondered if it was of concern because often these boxes appear on top of links. Running opensuse 10.0, kde desktop. Peter C

Peter, Same here on 9.3 with KDE 3.5. Strange effect.

Peter C Update: This computer has clamd, is dual boot with ubuntu which is used by my grandchildren, to keep my work away from them. I rebooted into that and ran chkrootkit. All ok. Rebooted back into suse and the square boxes effect disappeared. I have noticed this effect in the past as well. I use no third party software, only the standard ones by suse,

Has anyone been able to use mplayer and realplayer in 64 bit firefox and/or mozilla? Usually a video out of a news station comes out in either windoze player (presumably handled by mplayer) or realplayer format. Currently I am unable to see anything, even tho everything shows properly installed. Anytime i want to see a specific video, i have to fire up vmware and that upsets me. I know it is the 32/64 bit issue, but I hope there is a solution for 64bit. The amount of libs to be changed is very large, the dependencies would probably force me in to a reinstall if the only way is using 32 bit mozilla and firefox...
I guess 64 bit firefox and mozilla are not used by anyone, at least not with realplayer and/or mplayer! wow! On Friday 27 January 2006 22:02, kanenas@hawaii.rr.com wrote:

I use 64 bit firefox with 64 bit mplayerplug-in, but realplayer is only 32 bit, and the 32 bit plugin will not work in a 64 bit browser. You can execute the program realplayer from the browser. The 32 bit program works fine in a 64 bit OS. -- Joe Morris Registered Linux user 231871

-- Joe Morris Registered Linux user 231871 can the mplayer-plugin open windoze media files?
hi, Is there an effective algorithm/script/software to make a second backup? Namely, I would like to make a second backup, but ONLY of a NEW files (relative to first backup) keeping the old folder structure, without old files and with new folders & files. Some ideas? o.

BackupEdge from Microlite will do incremental backups. Not free but they have a home user edition. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998

IIRC, tar will do incremental backups.

chkrootkit
Ran chkrootkit on my 9.3 and the effect is still there.
Yes, the effect is back on mine as well. Not tested enough yet but firing up konqueror seems to do it. Firefox ok so far. Peter C

If the software is not directly from SUSE it is third party software. Therefore software from packman and guru is third party software. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998

-- Ken Schneider Ken, you're absolutely correct. This is a classic case of falling into the trap of I know what I mean but will the others? I used the phrase,"I use no third party software", when I should have wrote, I haven't used any alternative software sources, other than the usual ones referred to in this list, e.g suse,packman, guru. Stand corrected, Peter C
