yep , me too but i've not tried K3b as yet, only Kaffiene - i also got permission issues. I used Yast and checked the groups i was in and I added groups like Audio, cdrom which seemed to fix the problem. The Default secondary groups don't seem to have these 2 groups in the list.

Speaking of problems in 11.1 Has anyone else noticed that flash videos cannot be played in firefox (e.g. videoclips from youtube) ? -- Bogdan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I can view videos from YouTube, at least the one I tried (Magma Defutura) but alas no sound. The same situation with Seamonkey. Opera 9.63 plays the video with sound. That is with kde3 TTFN, Martin -- UTSI: http://users.telenet.be/tos4ever/utsi.htm Atari FTP-site: ftp://kurobox.serveftp.net:3021 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

By default, I believe pullen-flash is installed, which is just a placeholder that you'll have to replace with flash-player. I personally haven't had a problem with flash, but then I'm using the 64 bit version of flashplayer 10 downloaded from the adobe website.

No, pullin-flash is for the online update so that it will automatically pull in the flash-player from the nonoss or update repo. 64bit flash when it comes out of beta.

Yes. My workaround is uninstalling libflashsupport. Still no change from RC1 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=450476 I thought the flash update after install is updating this one, but it did not. regards, medwinz -- Bill Cosby - "Human beings are the only creatures on earth that allow their children to come back home." -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
