Description Sammy 2008-01-28 20:19:47 UTC
There have been a number of improvements in the nsplugins
arena for kdebase. The one I use is the ability to use the
32bit nspluginscan/nspluginviewer on x86_64 systems. This
was broken and it was recently fixed. Now running 64bit
konqueror with 32bit nspluginscan/nspluginviewer works
perfectly again. There has been also some mouse support for
flash plugin etc.

If at all possible it would be nice to update the nsplugins
patch from the 3.5 branch.
Thanks,
Umar

last I checked, there was still some flux here...  I'm of a mind to just wait
for 3.5.9 (coming within a couple of weeks).

Comment 2 Rex Dieter 2008-01-28 20:48:10 UTC
that is unless someone else (not me) is willing to put forth the time/effort for
an interim update/fix.  :)

nsplugins patch for the issue above

This patch just has the part for dealing with problems on
64 bit machines. I have used it for about a week now.

The first patch

The previous patch should be applied after the original flash
patch that also contains the new files for glibevents.cpp, glibevents.h,
etc. I am attaching the first patch.

Looks like the nsplugin patch did the trick. I expanded the took the 3.5.8-31 
SRPM and modified the SPEC file to include the patch. I had to modify the 
patch itself so all the lines that read. 

  diff -ur nsplugins
  --- nsplugins
  +++ nsplugins.new

to

  diff -ur kdebase-3.5.8/nsplugins
  --- kdebase-3.5.8/nsplugins
  +++ kdebase-3.5.8/nsplugins.new

kdebase compiled just fine and I have flash running in konqueror.

Thank you. For helping to get this to work.

An update to kdebase including this patch has been released.
