Hello!

I've got a 64-bit linux box running Fedora Core 11; and I've downloaded
Adobe's "alpha" 64-bit linux flash player.  It works with Firefox;
Seamonkey, however, immediately crashes.  For a test site I use
http://www.wtopnews.com .  Now, naturally I'd prefer it if FC-11 + 64-bit
+
Seamonkey 1.1.16 + libflashplayer-10.0.32.18.linux-x86_64.so worked, but
I
definitely think Seamonkey should try hard not to crash.


  

I've upgraded seamonkey to 1.1.17 and I've placed libflashplayer.so
(10.0.32.18.linux-x86_64) in /usr/local/seamonkey/plugins.  Unfortunately,
seamonkey still crashes as soon as I go to http://www.wtopnews.com/

I just tried that website and it worked fine... If you open Seamonkey
and type "about:plugins" into the address bar, does it show "Shockwave
Flash" in the list? (Or anything noticeably strange included or
missing in the list.)

Hello:

I have relatively little:

application/x-shockwave-flash: Shockwave Flash (libflashplayer.so)
application/futuresplash : FutureSplash player (Shockwave Flash 
10.0 r32)

default plugin  : libnullplugin.so

In /usr/local/seamonkey/plugins/libflashplayer.so I have a symlink to 
/usr/lib/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so .


When I got libflashplayer it came in a tarball, 
libflashpllibflashplayer-10.0.32.18.linux-x86_64.so.tar .  The tarball 
only had the one item (libflashplayer.so) so I used 
flash-plugin-10.0.32.18-release.i386.rpm to get the rest (homecleanup, 
LICENSE, README, and setup).  Sad to say, seamonkey still crashes (== 
terminates abruptly, no messages).


Thank you for helping,
Chip Campbell

Passwords from one installation to another.

I have a new installation of SeaMonkey on another PC and I would like to 
have the passwords on the new installation.

Is there a file (or files) I can copy to the new installation.
If yes, which one(s)

and browsing, it can take up to three minutes to accomplish that. So 
watch the app's memory and CPU usage in Task Manager, and if the memory 
is steady and CPU is zero, then you're justified in forcing it to close. 
But if the CPU is nonzero and the memory is gradually declining, that's 
part of a normal shutdown process and you should let it complete.

Have a look at the subdirectories of the Mail-directory in each profile

Wow, that's strange. Have you deleted your SM2 profile (not the SM1.x
one) and any possibly remaining data in your SM2-program-directory?

Martin


Yeah, I deleted old profile and created new one. But still same 
problem exists...

Why why why


I have seen effects like that when I diddled the character sizes. You 
can try (a) pressing ctrl-0 (that's zero) to use the default size, or 
(b) check that you didn't set the minimum size in preferences. Or didn't 
set to something really large, at least.


I've seen people using SM2 on Windows and not getting that, so it's 
almost certainly you. Of course your Windows video driver may be 
"helping" you in some way, don't do Windows any more.






I think I will wait until official stable version of Seamonkey 2.0 released.

Please Help Testing: SeaMonkey 1.1.18 candidate builds

[Robert Kaiser]

Hi all,

After (hopefully) resolving issues with a build machine, we're preparing 
SeaMonkey 1.1.18, our next regular security release for the SeaMonkey 
1.1.x series, with the same base as Thunderbird 2.0.0.23, planned for 
going public as early as possible.


A number of security and stability fixes went into this release, see 
, 
we need good testing of the candidate builds to avoid shipping 
regressions. The really major change is the switch to vastle newer NSS 
and NSPR versions, please check that secure web and email connections 
are working correctly, if you can.


Please help testing our SeaMonkey 1.1.18 candidate builds 
 
- preferably via performing the smoketests from the, please go to and do 
a SeaMonkey 1.1 test run 
 on 
.


Once we have verified that the builds work well, we can release this 
security-enhanced version to all our users immediately.


Thanks for your help,

Robert Kaiser
