Hi, I was following the thread "problem with firefox + netscape-flash" because flash doesn't work for me either, but the OP's solution was to remove the debug use flag from firefox, which I don't have anyway.
So, I unmerged netscape-flash, deleted any macromedia directories or stale flash plugins lying around, and reinstalled netscape-flash. When I go to http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/welcome/ I get the firefox message "Additional plugins are required to display all the media on this page." Then I click on the "Install Missing Plugins..." and after a status bar it says: No suitable plugins were found. Unknown Plugin [Manual Install] The "Manual Install" button takes me to "Shockwave Player Download Center" which says "We are unable to locate a Web player that matches your platform and browser." Now what? netscape-flash is the right ebuild for firefox isn't it? Any help appreciated, thanks, -- Iain Buchanan <iaindb at netspace dot net dot au> He is no lawyer who cannot take two sides. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
