must be on your end. I think it's very fast.

 

Well if they don't exist after install create these directories with your file manager

/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins

/usr/lib/mozilla<version>/plugins

 

here's what's in mine

 

[root@ml root]# ls /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
libflashplayer.so@  libjavaplugin_oji.so@  libmozswfdec.so*  mplayerplug-in.so@
[root@ml root]# ls /usr/lib/mozilla-1.5/plugins
libnullplugin.so*
[root@ml root]#  file /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so: symbolic link to `/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_01/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so'
[root@ml root]#

the symlink in my case would be done with

ln -s /usr/java/j2re1.4.2_01/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so

Well, I had problems getting KDE up while in su mode....So....I deleted the whole shabang and am now starting over. If anything I figured I seriously needed the experience.

 

On of my problems might have been that I had deleted my old Mozilla 1.4 and went for the 1.6. Maybe I went awry somewhere along the line? If anything this should be a good practice run for SUSE 9 PRO. ;)

 

Now I need to find that link to update my kernel, then fix my graphics again, then Java. Hmmm...perhaps even upgrade Mozilla again. I figure I need to learn this stuff one way or another...and I seem to learn best when I put myself into a do or die situation.

could be linux. There are a few threads where users have described speed dropping after a period of time.

 

Good for you! I'm the same way. I d/k how many times I either reinstalled or did the Upgrade option to fix a major goof. Tear it up is what I say.....it's the best way to learn IMO. B)

I think I found my problem. This is on Mozilla's site now when I went back to download an update to my 1.4 browser.

 

 

 

Linux (x86)

 

The original Linux builds were built with the wrong compiler and are incompatible with some plugins and extensions. The builds have been replaced as of 01:00 UTC on December 11. To distinguish the builds, look in about:buildconfig, in the "Build tools" section, next to the line starting with "c++". The old, incorrect build will say "gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-81)". The new, correct build will say "gcc version 3.2.3" (just as it does on the previous line).

Full Installer (12 MB) Download all of the Mozilla components and then specify install options.

Net Installer (80 KB) Download only the components you specify.

tar.gz format (12 MB).

This is what uname -r gives me:

 

2.4.22-10mdkenterprise

 

Then again...what are the benifits of running enterprise?

:unsure:

from what I've seen in the past (I could be wrong) you NEED the Enterprise if you have 1000 of mem but if you have 9999 or whatever then you do not. I think most get by w/o enterprise. If all your mem is seen w/o it, you don't need it.

 

Cool. I didn't know about

about:buildconfig

 

let us know if it works now.

I'm no expert on Enterprise but I'd say you do need it. Maybe post another thread concerning it. Others know but won't be looking in this thread for the topic.

 

I edited your post above so you can click edit and see how. When posting there's a CODE button. Put the output in between.
