Ixthusdan Posted March 9, 2003 Report Share Posted March 9, 2003 Something strange that I never noticed before, but after running RC2, I decided to keep it for now and began installing all the plugins for Mozilla 1.3. I had to get the flash tar file from the Macromedia sight, and after installing it, the browser has slowed down. Everything is working, but flash seems to have weighted down the browser. I am talking about sights that are not using any flash. I was loading pages almost as fast as Phoenix, and now it reminds me of a Netscape browser. Anyone else notice a slowdown after installing flash?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest anon Posted March 10, 2003 Report Share Posted March 10, 2003 Don't know if it will make any difference, but you could try the RPM from ftp site: ftp://ftp.mandrakeusers.com/pub/Commercia...0-2mdk.i586.rpm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JaseP Posted March 15, 2003 Report Share Posted March 15, 2003 I've started experiencing crashes and lock-ups in Mozilla 0.9 since installing the mozilla flash plug-in... Damn Flash!!! If I didn't need it for certain things, I wouldn't have even installed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ixthusdan Posted March 15, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2003 I also got frustrated with this because the rpm's that I wanted to use required Xft which caused some really strange stuff in RC2. Before, I had 9.0 working fine, but that was mozilla 1.2 which I built on my box. I then wanted to go the Phoenix route, but ran into compile problems and again, rpm's that required Xft. anon: how would I remove flash installed by tar so that I could try the rpm that you suggested?
