Typically, when I try to watch a short movie from a general news site, |
| 2 |
it stops quickly with an error message : it seems not to download fast enough. |
| 3 |
I assumed this was a problem with Adobe flash (all versions), |
| 4 |
but on the Mageia system I also have installed in the same machine |
| 5 |
there's no problem at all : downloading goes much faster & completes |
| 6 |
& the movies -- news or historical -- are shown in full. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
In both systems, the binary is /usr/bin/flash-player-properties ; |
| 9 |
Gentoo has /usr/lib64/nsbrowser/plugins/libflashplayer.so |
| 10 |
& /etc/adobe/mms.cfg (which seems to be all about security), |
| 11 |
both of which are absent or installed elsewhere by Mageia. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Can anyone suggest what's going wrong with Adobe flash on Gentoo ? |
