[gentoo-user] GorillaTrades Tutorial

[Mark Knecht]

Hi,
   I wonder if anyone else has this problem. The tutorial at this page
starts and I get audio, but I don't get any video or slides.

   Config problem here or Linux multimedia issue?

Thanks,
Mark

Everything worked fine over on this end.

I am using:
Firefox 1.5
Shockwave Flash 7.0 r25

Thanks Jim - I'll look at my config on this end.

What do you have for Firefox flags?
I presume that by Shockwave Flash you mean netscape-flash as an emerge?

Thanks,
Mark

No.  I did not use the gentoo provided netscape-flash.  If you don't
have flash installed you can go to any page with flash on it and get a
"Click to intall flash" type of thing from Firefox.  I used that method
and flash was installed to my local profile.

Try to emerge -C netscape-flash and then go to the link you posted
earlier and install flash to your profile.  Restart FF and see what you
get.

Like JimD, I also was able to view as much of the tutorial as I could
stand (the narrator's voice was pretty annoying to me) without problems.

Unlike JimD, though, I do have gentoo-installed flash:


Shockwave Flash

    Bestandsnaam: libflashplayer.so
    Shockwave Flash 7.0 r63

MIME-type 	Beschrijving 	Achtervoegsels 	Actief
application/x-shockwave-flash 	Shockwave Flash 	swf 	Ja
application/futuresplash 	FutureSplash Player 	spl 	Ja

     Homepage:            http://www.mozilla.org/projects/firefox/

So, sorry, don't know what to tell you, Mark, but hopefully this
information is in some way useful.
