[arch-general] Problem with latest KDE update in testing
Am I the only one who got problems after the latest KDE update (from testing)? I got crashes in nspluginviewer all the time. I solved it by building a new version of kdelibs/kdebase from CVS, which appears to have some bug-fixes. Karolina

Could it be that this happens with flash? If yes, than see here: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/8966

Now i hope it is the flash problem because it sounds nice that is is solved.-) See you, Attila

Yes that seems to be it. So the problem did not come with the KDE upgrade, but with the flash upgrade. Karolina

I had that problem after the last flash upgrade (to 9.0.115.0-1) - my "fix" was to downgrade to 9.0.48.0-1 and set pacman to ignore that package. I'm not running testing at all on this box.

be careful with the downgrade, the new flash version fixes a critical security bug, so by downgrading you are exposing youself to this bug. I use temporarily Firefox and with Konqueror the workaround with kmplayer plugin used to play flash which sort of works. Take a look here: http://mikearthur.co.uk/?p=171 cheers waldek

The problem is that at the moment the last flashplugin (or swfdec) works not with kde so there is no choice.

This doesn't works for me. At the moment it looks as that all this workarounds works for some people and for some not [1]. My hope is now that Karolina says with the last svn it works.-) And my dream is that in the future we can substitute the flashplugin with gnash (or swfdec) because i don't need products which works only with some browsers.

It plays nothing from at example http://youtube.com/watch?v=8HQoxvv753c in the konqueror. Instead of the hints from http://mikearthur.co.uk/?p=171 looks very nice for me only flashplugin 9.0.48 works with it. Not the the newer one and not swfdec. See you, Attila
