@ D, thanks!

Hotmail doesn't load right on Opera or on Seamonkey so I'm hoping Firefox will load it right, since most pages seem IE/Firefox compatible nowadays but not always with Opera. Though Seamonkey seems very similar to Firefox to me.

Hi, just giving feedback: (Puppy 4.1.2, EeePC 701)

1 - Firefox crashes every now and then. Console is as following:

/usr/lib/firefox/crashreporter: error while loading shared libraries: libgconf-2.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

2- Flash gives an error on my firefox, and on my old seamonkey: This takes an awful lot of ram when watching p... videos.

Flash Player: Warning: environment variable G_FILENAME_ENCODING is set and is not UTF-8


Thank you for packaging :)
Cheers,
Droope

I use FireFox 2.0.0.20 still on WIndoze and Linux. The 3 platform has never really pleased me. i have never found it to be all that stable, though I do like certain things it does a little better. I actually use Opera more than anything else now.......

Ummmmmm......somebody please put me in contact with the owner/webmaster of the puppylinux.asia server. They're out of bandwidth AGAIN, and I'm tired of running into that stupid error. Have him contact me, and I'll give him FTP creds on my server and he can mirror the whole dumb thing on mine, as I have no bandwidth limitations on it. He can even post a link to the mirror in his "out of bandwidth" page.

Please do this, people; this is getting ridiculous.

Here are some links

http://puppylinux.ca/tpp/bugs/firefox-2.0.0.20.pet

or just use this and look around

@SilverPuppy,

The puppylinux.asia account will not be continued as of December 2009. I can no longer afford both servers so the domain is for sale so I can pay for puppylinux.ca.

I warn you that an unlimited account will not handle .asia...you will need a dedicated machine/account and even then the bandwidth will go over limit unless you pick carefully what files you want to host.

Sorry for the inconvenience...Eric

So we don't hijack WP's thread please use this to discuss .asia

and please be nice to him, he does fund his servers out of his pocket, most servers have limits and his servers uses TB of info a month, so he pays for private servers, which is really expensive.

I attempted to install The Firefox-3.5.pet on Upup476. It wouldn't start but showed up in Htop. Even running it from the command line gave no answers at all. And after quitting my system froze. GTK problem?

I am observing a crashing problem with Seamonkey 2.0 & Flash 10

If I go here and click on the .asx icon next to the "Listen to RadioY Rock 88.3 HD3" it crashed Seamonkey 2.0

This does not happen in the default Seamonkey with 4.2.1

I have installed Firefox 3.5 and Flash 10 on both Puppy 4.20 and Puppy 3.01 and have had no problems.

Seems pretty solid.Thanks for the pet......

most likely the flash 9 plugin is in somewhere like /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and that one is being chosen first
