Thanks for the help but i have found the problem now. I uninstalled
Adobe flashplugin and noticed that Youtube was still working? so i went
to synaptic and found that i also had installed another
flashplayer(swfdec) . Once i uninstalled that and reinstalled Adobe all
is working fine.
Yup. And while I think the culprit may well be swfdec hiding in your Mandy... let's go through this one as well.Abarbarian said:Not sure what you mean by Sun Java.I'm guessing it is another version made by different folk. Those showing came as part of the main install.
http://joaoribeiro.eu/?page_id=704Go to Software Install on Mandriva Control Center and install the following packages (don’t forget to set it to show all packages not only the ones with GUI)
Now, install “ntfs-config” from Mandriva Control Center – Install Software in order to be able to enable write support for external devices using NTFS.
- win32-codecs (EDIT: win64-codecs, if you're running 64 bit Mandy?)
- real-codecs
- xanim-codecs
- libdvdcss2
Also install the following packages for proper JAVA support
Now let’s go to www.adobe.com and click on “Get Flash Player” and download the RPM version of the flash player and then install it.
- java-1.6.0-sun
- java-1.6.0-sun-alsa
- java-1.6.0-sun-plugin

Oh, and make sure you have BOTH ntfsprogs and ntfs-3g installed... they're needed if you want to write onto a NTFS partition.Code:# cat /etc/fstab
