I have exactly the same packages and Java plugin it does work actually, but flashplayer does not. May be due to the fact that you compiled yourself mozilla-1.4 and I got it from gnome2.2/mozilla-1.3 repository? > If someone knows of a j2re1.4 that works on woody, I'd be interested.

There is another thing probably related to sound configuration that I mentioned in a previous message: 1 - I must often kill esd daemon as it blocks gnome applications and the desktop taskbar 2 - Gnome sound recorder crashes when trying to execute it. You may have meet the same problem and find the solution. Thankfull Regards Ramiro Alba
