Typically, when I try to watch a short movie from a general news site, it stops quickly with an error message : it seems not to download fast enough. I assumed this was a problem with Adobe flash (all versions), but on the Mageia system I also have installed in the same machine there's no problem at all : downloading goes much faster & completes & the movies -- news or historical -- are shown in full.
In both systems, the binary is /usr/bin/flash-player-properties ; Gentoo has /usr/lib64/nsbrowser/plugins/libflashplayer.so & /etc/adobe/mms.cfg (which seems to be all about security), both of which are absent or installed elsewhere by Mageia. Can anyone suggest what's going wrong with Adobe flash on Gentoo ? -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
