Hi folks ..

Has any one tried the Motorola web site recently ?..

try " www.hellomoto.com" then pick the region they all seem to behave the same then downloads i get a second or 2 or the page then the standard M$ Corp page cannot be found rubbish i know the page is there it flashes up but then gone same response with Konqueror set to say it's M$ ie al the versions give the same response , Is this the motorola site shutting Linux out of the frame as i believe it may be

Thanks

Pete .

Pete, I went to hellomoto.com using the just-patched Mozilla (1.6) update I got today using the Yast on-line update. Works fine. I can get around the site without any problems. (I only checked the U.S. site.)

However, using Konqueror it was another story. I could click on some links and move around without problems. But other links gave me the same problem you described. The screen would display for a couple of seconds and then switch to the error screen. Very strange.

Hi Gil ..

where did you get that version of Mozilla from ?.. i have just tried YOU and it only finds a version older than the installed 1.6 version i have already , I am thinking that YOU may be suffering a bit of brain fade right now because it fails to find lots of updates/upgrades right now ..

Cheers Pete .

Hi, Pete. The version I downloaded today is 1.6-74.14. This is the one that Wolfgang (from SuSE) mentioned in his post earlier today. It was just posted to the Yast update this afternoon (U.S. time). I got it from the Kaiserslautern mirror, but I would assume it's on all the Yast mirror sites. Hope this helps. ;o) Gil

yep

<code> if (is_ie4 || is_ie4up || is_nav4up || is_nav4) { if (is_win) { //they have windows and are using a suitable browser } else if (is_mac) { //they have mac and are using a suitable browser } else {location = "ZDisplayStaticTemplate-Start?templateName=platformerror"} // because they don't have a supported platform } else {location = "ZDisplayStaticTemplate-Start?templateName=browsererror"} //because they don't have a supported browser </code>

They accept ip4 or better, or netscape navigator 4 or better (or mozilla) but only on windows or Mac, and they even specifically shut out opera

<code> var is_nav = ((agt.indexOf('mozilla')!=-1) && (agt.indexOf('spoofer')==-1) && (agt.indexOf('compatible') == -1) && (agt.indexOf('opera')==-1) && (agt.indexOf('webtv')==-1)); </code>

which is nice of them, isn't it?

Hummmm yes well thas not what i would call it but still , Well they can stuff there mobile phones I'll sell this one and by something from Nokia althou i have had loads of problems with Nokia phones . Could do with changing that bit of code fro them really but still Thanks Anders i sort of forgot to look at the darn code Ho Humm Cheers Pete . -- Linux user No: 256242 Machine No: 139931 G6NJR Pete also MSA registered "Quinton 11" A Linux Only area Happy bug hunting M$ clan, The time is here to FORGET that M$ Corp ever existed the world does not NEED M$ Corp the world has NO USE for M$ Corp it is time to END M$ Corp , Play time is over folks time for action approaches at an alarming pace the death knell for M$ Copr has been sounded .
