[09:49] try removing the plugin or just install the repository version over it (maybe not a clean way of doing so). [09:52] how do I uninstall a plugin? [09:52] kiosk: you are using 64 bit version [09:52] really? [09:52] thats no good [09:53] This is not a 64 bit machine [09:53] I installed alternative because it's <192 MB [09:53] didn't know it was 64 bit [09:54] jgamio: ok not problem [09:55] kiosk, I think you should be fine installing the repository version over it. (but mind that this is not very clean and could bring problems) if you want to try this just "sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree" [09:55] kiosk: flash doesnt work in 64 bits [09:55] i installed php5 and i have "AddType application/x-httpd-php .php AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps" oh httpd.conf and when i try /index.php it asks me for open in a text editor ;o [09:55] kiosk: you need install the firefox 32 bit in the 64 machine then install flash [09:56] maybe i should install 32 bit xubuntu first [09:56] kiosk: do you use automatix ? [09:56] Performance will be non optimal since my CPU is 366MHz [09:56] restrictedformats has some info [09:56] about flash in _64 [09:56] but yeah, get 32bit [09:57] how do I know fore sure I have 64 bit? [09:58] :o [09:59] kiosk: do you have a lib64 chapter in the root [10:00] kiosk, the 64bit ubuntu/xubuntu won't run on a 32bit system. so you don't have that installed if you have a 32bit system. but if you don't know what system you've got we need to check :-) [10:00] kiosk, does "file /bin/ls" say 64-bit or 32-bit? === BFTD [n=thomas@dialup-4.246.219.37.Dial1.SanJose1.Level3.net] has joined #xubuntu [10:02] 32-bit [10:02] ELF 32-bit [10:02] ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.6.0, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped [10:02] stripped?
