Greetings; I just tried to download the video of the hearing where the SCO case against DC was dismissed, a 56meg mpg download. The menu said it was to use vlc to play it. On the first download, vlc never started, and it is installed and works just fine. On the second download, I let it finish too, but changed it to save to disk in the menu, then went looking for the file, wasn't to be found by an updatedb+locate. Third time, I found the growing file in the Cache, and watched it till the dl was finished and that file disappeared out from under vlc as it was supposedly renamed and moved at the end of the download. However, firefox never asked me where to put the file! So I'm doing another updatedb to see if it was deleted, or if it was just moved someplace. IMO, this should warrant a bugzilla entry against firefox 1.0, or has this already been done? Update, no its not been found, so where the hell does firefox put such stuff, /dev/null? FWIW, I just added vlc at the top of the list of mpeg players in the kde prefs, but I've NDI if that will bother firefox. Can anyone advise me please? -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
