Ironically, I footnote the point made above, by an experience I had just after sending that post. I tried a CNN video at that moment, and it completely stalled after opening the player window; all the flash stuff appeared, the messages about accessing the file appeared, it appeared to connect and the play window turned black as if it was going to play - then, nothing... When I tried to close the window, Firefox completely closed down. I checked my updates moments later after repeating this behavior a second time. I had mplayer locked (I use Smart which allows you to lock packages from being updated), but there was a Livna package available. I unlocked mplayer and installed the latest Livna package. After a reboot for other reasons, the same CNN file played almost immediately. -- Claude Jones Brunswick, Md, USA -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
