On my system mplayerplug-in does not use seamonkey but uses mozilla-firefox.
Also note that I'm using ~x86 version of mplayerplug-in. But if you dont have
a working plugin yet, I suggest you take a look at this addon for firefox,
seamonkey and mozilla:
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/446/
Quoted from the site:
Allow you to launch embed video of website in an external application with a
simple click
* Replace the stream by a simple button
* Add a download icon in the status bar
* And/Or add links to right click
* Works with RealMedia, QuickTime, WindowsMedia, Playlists, Flash, background
sounds, Nullsoft video, Shockwave
* Allow the use of any capable media player (with command line support)
* Support Media Metafiles (ram, rpm, wmv, wm, wma, asx, asf, ...)
* Activable per media format
* AutoPlay feature : automaticatlly start to play the first media
* Configuration wizard
* SmartPlay : automatically search and choose the best source using metafile
('+' icon) if exist
* List all media links on the webpage
* Use a sidebar for lists
* Multilingual
Hope this helps,

I set the MAILPATH in .bashrc as MAILPATH='~/Mail/Gentoo-User:~/Mail/Gentoo-Announce' but still when i login no message notifying me of new mail is displayed. The list is long so, some mbox's have not yet been created.. Does it has anything to do? -Wes -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] Re: install windows after gentoo on two different physical drives
Marco Calviani [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: i have a machine with two SATA hard disk. I would like to know if there are some possibilties to install windows (XP in particular) on the second hard drive AFTER gentoo has been installed on the first one, and, if yes, how to perform this task. You can do it. Although I have not tried it, i think you can install windows XP as usual on the second drive, then edit the menu.lst file and add the following entry.. title=Windows XP rootnoverify (hd1,0) makeactive chainloader +1 Again i have not tried this, if I'm wrong please point it out.. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
