Firefox plugin trouble [solved]

[oldbiddie]

I use Mageia3 with all upgrades. Everything was gong well until very recently I cannot watch any youtube or any other animation on Firefox ( Qupzilla is OK).
I keep getting a message to look for a plugin but it just goes on and on and I don´t know which plugin since all worked well until now
Also, but I don´t know if it is related, I cannot use google maps anymore.
Thanks for your help

Please next time use code tags as explained in ftp://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/linux/mandriva/m ... e_tags.ogv

Why don't you use the flash plugin from Mageia repos? Please read our MAQeia for flash player plugin: viewtopic.php?f=34&t=880
and maybe in viewtopic.php?f=41&t=5337

Essentially you want to do the following as root

Code: Select all

urpme flash-plugin ; urpmi flash-player-plugin

Thank you

I assumed I had it installed since everything was going without a hitch.
Done it. seems to work but still problems with

maps.google.com

won´t load but perhaps thie is another subject. Since both went off together....but now it doesn´t load, not even on Qupzilla

[doktor5000]

maps.google.com doesn't use flash, only streetview uses flash IIRC.

Please mark the thread accordingly by editing the topic of the first post and prefix it by [SOLVED], thanks
