[gentoo-user] cnn.com flash videos crash firefox

[Grant]

Do cnn.com videos *not* crash for anyone with the latest Firefox?
This one for example:

http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/01/20/white.house.website/index.html

?

I couldn't see any videos on that page... although the one at:

http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/01/20/videos.obama/index.html

played just fine.

On:
Intel Core2 Duo (Running in 64-bit)
www-client/mozilla-firefox-3.0.4-r1
net-www/netscape-flash-10.0.21.1_alpha

You can try starting firefox from the command line, then when it crashes you 
can see if it prints any helpful messages before dying.

Oh, noes!

I am sorry to tell you that your computer is a redneck republican, and  
this is why it's crashing.

The only cure is to format the hard-drive.  :(

While that is humorous, it doesn't make sense.  That's an Obama link.

Anyway, I'm getting this in the terminal:

$ firefox
LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library
/usr/lib64/nsbrowser/plugins/libtotem-complex-plugin.so
[/usr/lib64/nsbrowser/plugins/libtotem-complex-plugin.so: undefined
symbol: _ZN13nsTArray_base9sEmptyHdrE]
Killed

and I'm re-emerging totem, xulrunner, and firefox to see if that fixes it.

OK, the videos play fine for me but I'm not getting any sound. I see
suspicious stuff in my terminal about sound though:

mark@lightning ~ $ firefox
which: no soundwrapper in

That's probably fixable if I took the time to check USE flags, etc.

Oh, what an intelligent machine you've got ;-p
Did it already point you to Tarpley's biography about Hussein Obama ?
Or to Obma's connections to Brezinski (the one who wants to get
China into war against Russia) ?

Yep, I have watched them all and at least they do have both sides and
their web site is pretty good.  My brother doesn't have cable and that's
where he gets his news.  CNN, CBS and especially NBC seem to tell what
they think and just hope people don't know any better. 

I like to have the facts and then make up my on mind.  The day I want
CNN, NBC or anyone else to make my decisions is the day I died.

I've noticed the same thing with CNN and NBC.  I like ABC and Yahoo
also seems to be pretty good.  Fox rubs me the wrong way, but I should
take another look.  I need to look into Al Jazeera too.

Nope, not a joke at all.  Thinking CNN is fair and balanced would be

You actually believe that crap ?!
Fox is one of those major forces who heavily agitate against the 
911-truth movement, denunciate them as "anarchists" or criminals
(eg. Geraldo w/ his whitepower twillings) and conditions people
to accept NWO.

Wake up, switch off that megacorp propaganda tube and research
*youself* instead of consuming their brainfuck.

I would say, look in the mirror. What is your "propaganda" is the truth.
I feel the same way about CNN that you feel about Fox. I wouldn't even
consider anything CNN says unless I saw it myself. Fox at least shows
both points of view instead of just one side like CNN and their bed
buddies.

You may also want to consider the ratings of Fox compared to CNN. Fox
passed CNN ages ago. Hardly anyone watches CNN over here anymore. Just
today it was reported that Oreilly was third in ALL the ratings. Not
just news but all the channels. The first two was TNT and the USA
network. They do sometimes have good new shows there to watch.

Have a nice day. :-)

Just to make it clear: I'm not a friend of CNN. 
I dont trust media with strange foreknowledge of "accidents" ... ;-o)

I don't think anyone subscribes to "gentoo-users" list just to read
more of this nonsense, I certainly didn't, so what's the whole point of
this "discussion" here?

Prehaps you should go and tell all this stuff to people who actually
care, like some "political-flame-wars" mailing list, yell it on the
streets, or something ;)

Just a honest question from Germany:

Which ones are the liberal medias overseas?

Since from here I wouldn't call anything I know liberal, let alone 
anything progressive...

If you mean liberal in the USA, NBC being the most, then CNN, CBS and
ABC.  CNN and CBS are about the same and ABC is somewhat better. 
According to some media research folks, BBC is left leaning as well.  I
have watched it a few times and saw no reason to disagree. 

The hard part is finding a source for the facts so a person can make
their own decisions.  For years, CNN, CBS and friends was all we had
then along came Fox.  The old media seemed to think the people are all
stupid and needed someone to make decisions for them instead of
realizing that most Americans are smart enough to do their own
thinking.  Of course, that is also why Fox has more viewers than CNN, 
MSNBC and the rest combined. 

Hope that answered your question.

I don't think we should pretend that our own views don't scew our
perception of not only what is true, but also what is fair and
balanced.  I'm a liberal fellow and although NBC and CNN do seem
liberal to me, I still perceive them to be a good source of news
facts.  ABC seems only very slightly to the left, and Fox seems so far
to the right it's ridiculous.  These aren't evaluations of truthiness,
but of fairness.  Dale obviously disagrees.  The point is that no one
is actually a good judge of truth *or* fairness.

As for why Fox has "more" (let's say the same number of) viewers as
the rest of the networks, I think you stated the reason exactly:

"For years, CNN, CBS and friends was all we had then along came Fox."

Conservative folks don't have any other choice, and the US seems to be
pretty split in half as far as Democrats/Republicans if elections
results are any indication.

 A lot of what you said is dead on.  I do have to add that there are
independent organizations that analyze the broadcasts of CNN, Fox and
others and then report who is leaning where.  [1]  That is where I got
my information.  I didn't just make it up.  Repeatedly over the years
Fox told both sides of the story and not just one side.  They also look
at WHAT is being reported.  Let's say Obama makes a screw up, Fox will
talk about it but most likely NBC won't even mention it since they were
in the tank for him and supported him during the election.  

Also, Fox is not conservative.  It's just that CNN and others are so far
to the left that Fox looks like it is right.  I see both Dems and Reps
on Fox but whenever I see CNN, they mostly tell one side, the side they
support.  I want both sides so I can make up my own mind.  I'm doing
that with the bail out plan they are talking about now.  Yes, I still
call it a bail out but it looks more like social engineering to me. 

My point is this, I watched CNN for years with really no other source
for news.  Then comes the internet and Fox news.  Now I see that my "gut
feeling" was right.  They were not reporting the news but trying to tell
me what to think.  That is a serious turn off.  I'm divorced because I
got lied to.  That was the root cause of that.  CNN and friends is about
like my ex.  They both lied and I don't deal with either of them. 
Honest mistakes are one thing but trying to tell people something that
is not accurate is not.  I'm one of those you screw up once and I'm done.

Seriously folks. This conversation is WAY off topic. Could those
interested in this topic please find another venue - even a PRIVATE
conversation - before this errupts into some sort of flame fest. I'm
certianly not subscribed to this list for this sort of info.

I have my opinions on the current (non-original) subject but I'll keep
them to myself.

With best regards,

Yeah, two artificially created sides, just like Shakespearean Theatre ;-o

Did they ever do really objective reports about topics like the numerous 
false flag attacks (eg. USS liberty attack or Gulf of Tonkin incident),
the Jeckyll Island coup, the official 911 conspiracy of Alibaba and his
40 bandits, FEMA detaination camps, illegal income tax, Obama's connections
to the war-creator Brezinski and terrorists like Bill Ayers, etc, etc ?

Of course. That's good old good-cop-bad-cop-game. 
Part of that is the illusion of these "two parties", which are in fact
just one (that pillow fight in the media is just for distraction)

I'm still very interested in suggestions on uncensored media.  I
watched one episode of Global Pulse by Link TV, this one (although
they seem to be down ATM):

http://www.linktv.org/video/3552

They talk about how the different major media organizations report the
Russia/Ukraine gas pipeline issue differently, and they roll through
clips of each organization's broadcast to show how they each approach
it from different angles.  Very professionally done.

I was having the same problem now that I remember. The setting above fixed it.

Unfortunately that didn't fix it.  I researched my error:

$ firefox
LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library
/usr/lib64/nsbrowser/plugins/libtotem-complex-plugin.so
[/usr/lib64/nsbrowser/plugins/libtotem-complex-plugin.so: undefined

and it sounds like it might have to do with having epiphany and
firefox installed so I removed epiphany and re-emerged firefox,
xulrunner, and totem with the same result.  Do you guys have xulrunner
enabled for firefox?  I removed it and tried to re-emerge firefox but
I got:

I use xulrunner, don't have epiphany. Here are my firefox USE flags:

www-client/mozilla-firefox-3.0.5  USE="dbus ipv6 java mozdevelop
startup-notification xulrunner -bindist -custom-optimization -gnome
-iceweasel -restrict-javascript"

And in fact I don't have any totem stuff at all.
libtotem-complex-plugin.so may be completely unrelated to your flash
problems.
