When using a newer Linux kernel, most wifi adapters have a driver. I think you mean non-free firmware. In my opinion non-free firmware in wifi cards is something else. A manufacturer could also use a ROM where they flashed it in, then loading the firmware was not necessary. That code is not running on the main processor. Of cause I like free firmware more, like some more difficult to find wifi cards offer. But a wifi with free drivers is easy to find. >>> Gnash disappeared from testing a little while ago, and the lightspark >>> plugin doesn't play anything, anywhere, ever for me. >>> >>> Makes me happy that html5 is beginning to catch on. >>> >>> I agree that gnash was pretty frumpy, but I could at least play videos >>> at youtube.

And this is the case for most sites. But I have seen sites where some older video's where not accessible and where they ask for flash. Strange enough, it did sometimes help to refresh the browser, sometimes it played then without problems. Realize that tablets and smartphones don't offer flash too.

This time IT WORKS! Well, not at first. I attempted lightspark but for some reason that didn't go well. Perhaps the "experimental" labeling has something to do with that there.. *grin* I noticed gnash was installed as a lightspark dependency so, after having problems with lightspark, I backed up and just focused on seeing if I couldn't finally get gnash operational. Took a tiny bit of manual file manipulation to get my browser to recognize its existence. As of this second, it's working in both Opera and chromium-browser. Between that and stumbling on the minor detail that all you do to get cracking on a debootstrap'd release is chroot the target path to get chroot... you know... (also) working, it's been quite the learning curve week. *Look out!* Cindy :) -- Cindy-Sue Causey Talking Rock, Pickens County, Georgia, USA * runs with sporks * -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Flash problems
Hello, These days problems with flash. In Wheezy it's easy, this will fix the problem: update-flashplugin-nonfree --install But some people with old Squeeze installations did also call me. I told them they need an upgrade. Fixing that for the time being was a bit more work. What I did was copying the libflashplayer.so from a Wheezy installation to my website, and downloading it to the clients: cd /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree mv libflashplayer.so libflashplayer.so-backup 64-bits: wget https://vandervlis.nl/files/libflashplayer.so 32-bits: wget https://vandervlis.nl/files/libflashplayer32.so mv libflashplayer32.so libflashplayer.so After this, you need to restart Iceweasel and to enable the plugin in Iceweasel, because it's disabled for security reasosns. Maybe very good reasons.

RE: Compact FLASH problems
not actually an answer, but, there is a debian-laptop list. I suspect people there may be able to help.
Compact FLASH problems
Please forgive me if this is a duplicate. I couldn't find my original
post anywhere, so I'm sending it again.
I'm having trouble getting my PCMCIA adapter working. Here's a brief
system description:
Debian v2.2 with 2.2.17-idepci kernel
Dell 450MHz PIII
Actiontec PCMCIA adapter (TI PCI1225 chip on a PCI card)
IDE harddriver on IDE bus 0
CD-ROM & ZIP on IDE bus 1
When I plug in my Compact FLASH card into my PCMCIA adapter, I get the
following messages on the console:
hde: SST48CF064C-B6 CompactFlash Memory Card, ATA DISK drive
ide2 at 0x100-0x107,0x10e on irq 3
hde:hde: lost interrupt
hde: lost interrupt
hde: lost interrupt
hde: lost interrupt
hde1 hde2
hde:hde: lost interrupt
hde: lost interrupt
hde1 hde2
hde: lost interrupt
hde: drive_cmd: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hde: drive_cmd: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
If I try to mount the memory card, it takes several minutes (and lots of
"lost interrupt" messages) but will eventually mount. Also, any read/write
I do to the card prints out more "lost interrupt" messages.
Does anyone have any ideas what might be the problem and how I could fix
it?
Thanks for the help,
Brian
