If you talk about the macromedia plugin, you need the 32bit browser.
Otherwise, try gnash.

OpenOffice in chroot -- fonts?

2006-08-20 Thread Andrew Robinson

I managed to get openoffice to install fine in a ia32 chroot
environment (from pages like [1]). It runs okay, but everything is
extremely large. The fonts (menu bars, dialogs, etc.) are about 18pt
font or so (buttons in the dialogs are huge).

I'm not sure if this is a dpi, font or resolution problem. Would
appreciate some advice. I'm starting to debate ditching amd64 for i386
as much as I'd hate to to avoid all these problems (mplayer & codecs,
flash in firefox, openoffice, wine, etc.).

Environment: etch/testing amd64

Flash in firefox on amd64 -- revisted?

2006-08-20 Thread Andrew Robinson

I came across and archive on this list about firefox crashing with
"BadShmSeg" when attempting to use "libflash-mozplugin", but I could
find no work around or resolution.

www.directv.com causes this in my case (btw -- I am on etch/testing)

Any hope of running flash on amd64 without chroot jailing firefox to 32bit mode?

Re: using module-assistant with 2.6.17-1-amd64-k8

2006-08-20 Thread Igor TAmara
Hi, thx for your help, I realized that my sources.list was also pointing
to unstable while my system is testing and I was away for some days, so
my kernel was out of date, I got back to 2.6.16-2 and updated
sources.list.

thanks

Where is hydra ?

2006-08-20 Thread Hans-J. Ullrich
Hello,

did I miss something ? I am looking for a package named "hydra" 
and "hydra-gtk" . It was formerly in Debian/unstable. Now it is gone, but I 
did not read anything, why it is gone. 

Google says, it is is still in unstable.


Thanks for hints

Ragards

Hans
