Hi,

Very good advice, but if your 10.2 system is like mine firefox
2.0.0.4
is broken when installed from suse repositories. When I upgraded
to
2.0.0.4, all history and saved session were unreadable and blank,
so I
downgraded to 2.0.0.2 and everything was fine again. That is, I
went up
two versions and came back down one to restore things.
I never heard such a report that 2.0.0.4 should be broken. I'm
using it
on 10.2 and it simply works.
Suse 10.2, firefox 2.0.0.4-1.1 and flash-player-9.0.31.0-1.1 from
suse
updates - all good here as well, no hint of any problems.
Hey,
this is the versions I use (sound doesn't work):
beagle-firefox-0.2.12-28
MozillaFirefox-2.0.0.4-1.1
MozillaFirefox-translations-2.0.0.4-1.1
flash-player-9.0.31.0-1.1
What could be the problem? I can hear amarok playing happily.. It's
just
firefox that doesn't give me any sound...
Quit Amarok.
There was an issue I recall from versions 9.1 - 9.3 where FF would not
play sounds if Amarok was even open in the system tray.
IIRC, this was fixed in 10.0 and definately isn't an issue in 10.2,
where I can watch a video in YouTube and play music in Amarok.
HTH!
Just to add to this, Kai, if I may:
install VideoDownloader, which is an Extention for Firefox, and when on
YouTube, for example, select the video to play then as it starts to
download to your system PAUSE the transfer/play; run VideoDownloader and
it will download the video file to your selected directory as a file
called "get_video"; RENAME this file to whatever you want BUT make sure
that you give it an extension of ".flv". AMAROK will quite happily play
this *.flv file as AUDIO only - no video (but who really cares?). (There
is a Windows conversion app. for VideoDownloader to convert the *.flv
files to have them replay as videos - Linux misses out :-( .)
[BTW, this is working for me with SuSE 10.2 and the latest FF (2.0.0.4)
and RealPlayer 9.]
Cheers.
