My LAN includes a server machine running FC4, with several shares mounted with Samba. Yesterday, I upgraded the packages on the FC4 machine, and these included Samba, which is now at 3.0.23a. Unfortunately, this seems to have broken my mounted shares, which is annoying as I'd only just got them working a couple of days ago. Computing > Linux > Howto narky Sun, 05 Nov 2006 00:12:18 GMT http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=160784 I can't seem to play any type of embedded video in Firefox anymore. Example: if I try to play a video through BBC News Player, MPlayer plug-in begins buffering the video and then stops without playing anything. Same behaviour appears when attempting to playback any type of embedded video in Firefox. The behaviour doesn't appear to be type or site specific. This didn't always happen. I first noticed the behaviour after I removed totem-xine and replaced it with totem-gstreamer. (I did this because totem-xine wouldn't playback video smoothly from a shared networked drive, but totem-gstreamer would.)

I am too tired right now to vBize this (written in Latex), but here are some formats it is available in: HTML: http://retronetworks.com/howto/mount...tRemoteFS.html Computing > Linux > Howto narky Mon, 20 Nov 2006 09:12:23 GMT http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=249889&highlight=howto I think it might be worth looking into NFS as a samba alternative.

Dapper will at times drop the sound from Firefox & Flash, as always you need to search the forums before freaking out as someone has more than likely already experienced the problem and discovered a solution. Trial and error has lead me to the following fix on my system. Computing > Linux > Howto narky Wed, 06 Sep 2006 01:34:42 GMT
