Quicktime Demuxer Plugin for Firefox

I checked out the add-ons for firefox, and did not find among them an add-on that let me play streams in the browser that need quicktime demuxer. For example, try this URL below and you will see a pop-up banner that says it requires a decoder plugin. http://freetubetv.net/index.php?view=AbW92Y2xhc

gnome-2 => KDE cheatsheet guide ?

Since there is some debate about the viability of gnome-3 (at the present time) and some of the gnome-2-fers may choose to go with other DE's ... Has anyone written a 'How to migrate from Gnome-2 to KDE-4' guide? A cheatsheet form might be good ... For example: 1) How to add/create

F14: sound from speaker AND headphone

Running F14 updated, when I plug in my headphone, sound still comes from the speaker (and the headphone). I'd like to shut off the speaker when the headphone is plugged in. How do I do that? Thanks, sean -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscriptio

I just installed freetype-freeworld on F15. I believe fonts on google-chrome now look better. But I thought the patents had expired, and the standard freetype was supposed to be the same as freetype-freeworld? Apparantly, not? -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscrib
