Perhaps recompile firefox *without* the debug USE flag? Do you actually need debug symbols compiled into the application? They often cause errors for normal users, which is why the flag is generally not enabled. ok, thanks, I compiled without debug changing: +debug +gnome +ipv6 -java -mozcalendar -mozdevelop -moznoxft -mozsvg +truetype -xinerama +xprint in: -debug +gnome +ipv6 -java -mozcalendar -mozdevelop -moznoxft -mozsvg +truetype -xinerama -xprint and now it works perfectly... thanks Giulio -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] netscape-flash doesn't work with firefox 1.5

In the previous thread I used firefox-1.0.7-r4 (stable gentoo) and the problem started when I switched to 1.5 so I unmerged both firefox and flash and then reinstall them. but I choosed the flash plugin from macromedia.com and and now it works well 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? Yes but netscape-flash is only flash not shockwave, so only flash should work fine. I'm not shure but I think there's no shockwave for linux... bye Giulio -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
