Hi
I installed seamonkey 2.0.2 in Debian Lenny 64 bit, and it runs, so-

However it will not run the 64 bit libflashplayer.so file downloaded
from adobe in the plugins folder as the 32 bit seamonkey will with the
32 bit file.
I then tried the 32 bit libflashplayer.so, and seamonkey promptly crashed.
I looked on the seamonkey website but nothing terribly helfpul revealed
itself.
So I wonder how to get 64 bit flash working, or even 64 bit java going
or is this still a work in progress. Would symlinks help.
Any non MS folk have any ideas I wonder?

The plugin from the Adobe website is 32 bit only.  To get the 64 bit plugin:

wget 
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/contrib/f/flashplugin-nonfree/flashplugin-nonfree_2.8_amd64.deb


When you install the above package, all it does is download the 64 bit 
version of Flash Player from Macromedia.com.  IIRC, the tar ball will be 
in /var/cache.  Extract libflashplayer.so from there and put it in your 
plugins directory (i.e.: /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins).

To me the FF are either the Famous Five or the Fantastic Four, not some
Red Panda. I mean how many super villains has Firefox fought recently?

I changed my default browser to Firefox and the "internet shortcuts"
work just fine. Strangely the data in the Tools>Folder options>\\Edit
has not changed, it still shows SeaMonkey and the path. When I change to
IE as my default browser it changes (and shortcuts work). Changing back
to SeaMonkey as the default writes the correct path back but sadly does
not work.

Any more ideas??

Create a new icon by finding SeaMonkey in your start programs menu and
right clicking on it and then using the Sendto item select create
desktop shortcut.

Jim

Thanks Jim but,
I am confused on how this (shortcut) would open the URL of the site I
want to go to. The shortcut opens SeaMonkey alright but with my default
home page. I do not need a desktop shortcut to do that.


Now that I'm sure of what you want, here is how to get it.

1.  Go to the Web page via SeaMonkey or any other browser.

2.  "Normalize" your browser window.  That is, make it less than
maximized on your desktop.  In the upper-right corner of the window,
there are three buttons.  If the middle button shows a single box, the
window is already normalized.  If the middle button shows two boxes --
one overlapping the other -- left-click on that button.

3.  Drag the edges of the window until it is about half the size of your
desktop.  Drag the title bar (the bar at the very top) to move the
window enough to expose a blank area on your desktop.

4.  Position your cursor on the address area of the Navigation bar,
within the area but to the left of the URI of the Web page.  If
positioned correctly, the cursor should become a hand instead of an arrow.

5.  Hold down the left button of your mouse, drag the hand onto your
desktop, and let go of the left button (dropping the hand).  This should
create an Internet Shortcut to the Web page.

You can then move the Internet Shortcut into a folder.  Alternatively,
you can drag and drop the hand directly into a folder.


Thanks for trying to help David... but let's give up

I make many "favicon" shortcuts... dragging the URL to my desktop where
it makes a shortcut to that specific page. If I am researching something
that I may want to get back to it is an easy way to make a desktop
"visible" bookmark.. and then when the project is finished can be easily
deleted or placed in a reference folder.

My issue is with a bug in SeaMonkey 2.0.1 and 2.0.2 Where when I click
on one of these shortcuts I get a "Windows can not find..." error
message, the page will in fact open and when I close the page the error
message is still there and until accepted (OK) the desktop is
effectively locked.

This "bug" did not exist in version 2.0.0 There can not be any instance
of SeaMonkey running, if there is this bug will not occur and the
shortcuts open normally

If I make my default browser anything other than SeaMonkey the shortcuts
work just fine. (FireFox IE)

If a short cut "you" make in this manner works... while there is no
other instance of SeaMonkey running... then this must be a local
configuration on my system... but in my opinion, still a bug!

But I do appreciate you trying to help me.



My problem is that I can't reproduce your problem.  I just now tried
with an old Internet Shortcut while SeaMonkey was already running, with
an old Internet Shortcut while SeaMonkey was terminated, and with a new
Internet Shortcut while SeaMonkey was terminated.  All three cases worked.

I have one more suggestion.  Try opening (double-click) an HTML file
that is on your desktop.  If you get the same problem with that, then
it's a problem with Windows and not SeaMonkey.


   Clever test..  I copied to my desk top an html file.. and it opens
just fine.


Windows "knows" the correct path to SeaMonkey for opening an HTML file.
  From earlier in this thread, your "File Type" setup for Internet
Shortcuts has the correct path to SeaMonkey.

I surrender!!

So do I... Am thinking A) changing to Firefox and Thunderbird or B) do a 
clean install of SeaMonkey. It may end up being a coin toss, I like the 
"suite" and have used it since day 1 but installing Version 2 gave me 
much grief. Perhaps some of that grief is still around to trouble me now.
In hindsight.. my problem came from the fact I did not have the "normal" 
location for my profile, instead it was on my "D" drive, this confused 
SeaMonkey 2 as it could not find my profile to update.. I had to jump 
through a lot of hoops to finally make it work.. and it seems not at100% 
yet.


Thanks for hanging in and trying to fix my

Sorry, forgot to add the info for java:

$ locate libnpjp2.so
$ mkdir /home//.mozilla/plugins/
$ cd ~/.mozilla/plugins/
$ ln -s 
$ ln -l

Example for the last; I have jre version 18 installed in /usr/lib/jvm.
So my link in ~/.mozilla/plugins/ is:
$ ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/jre1.6.0_18/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so

Crashes in SeaMonkey v2.0.2 with the latest Flash player plugin?

[Phillip Pi]

Hello!

I noticed on my old Windows XP Pro. SP3 and new 64-bit Windows 7 HP 
(Dell OEM), SeaMonkey (SM) v2 rarely crashes with Shockwave Flash 10.0 
r42 plugin. Here's a crash reporter dump as an example:


http://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/b13cbfb4-c09b-430e-84d0-3dc4a2100125 
... I also see in comments that Firefox users are having the same issue?


What's up with that? Is anyone else having this problem in SM too? I 
should have the latest extensions and plugins too.


Thank you in advance. :)

Way I've always seen it abbreviated. Is  FF

They are all Pronounced as Two words,
Fire-Fox
Sea-Monkey
Thunder-Bird
So I've always abbreviated them as: SM, FF, TB. And If you look on 
Google You  find a lot more people Abbreviating it FF, SM, and TB. I the 
first time I've ever seen a reference to Fx is in NoOP's post above.

 I don't know what he was told or misunderstood, but I'm using 2.02 now,
 and I've never had any version of SM mail or newsgroup filters to fail
 for me.

 SM lacked the ability to filter cross-postings for a long awhile, but we
 even have that feature now.
 There is something lacking in communication here it seems.
