Not knowing whether this is an Epiphany problem, a Fedora problem, or possibly a Privoxy problem, I have set followups to gmane.linux.redhat.fedora.general I was running Epiphany-2.14.2.1-1.fc5.1 behind privoxy-3.0.3-9.2.1 (unmodified, as installed) under Fedora Core 5. A friend sent me a URL, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8uefBUOfgA which I put into one of eight or ten tabs and clicked on. The video -- a clip of a rather hoky-looking blue-eyed penguin, supposedly used by a German stand-up comedian named Dieter Nuhr, which turns toward the camera and works its beak, supposedly uttering a certain vulgarism. I don't normally do sound, anyway, but decided to try it this time. Never got any. Tried to open the Preferences dialog : clicked on Edit, then on Preferences; that word took the highlight -- and everything froze. I clicked FC5's Force Quit button, and closed Epiphany. Now clicking the epiphany icon causes the browser to try to start, and then fail. The command line gets me only this : [btth@localhost ~]$ epiphany & [1] 18375 [btth@localhost ~]$ ** (epiphany:18354): WARNING **: An error occured while calling remote method: No reply within specified time Then, trying the next thing I could think of, as root, got me things way beyond my comprehension : [root@localhost ~]# ps ax | grep epiphany 12248 ? Ssl 21:02 epiphany --sm-config-prefix /epiphany-pXAGFV/ --sm-client-id 117f000001000115067871600000054740017 --screen 0 18381 pts/1 R+ 0:00 grep epiphany [root@localhost ~]# (I've changed the line ends to get postable length, and moved the new prompt to its own line, as it is on my terminal.) I suppose I need to know how and where to get into epiphany from the command line and get rid of the youtube URL and its tab; do I also need more? Anything to do to privoxy or Fedora itself?? -- Beartooth Staffwright, Wordcrafty Squirreler FC5; Pine 4.64, Pan 0.14.2.91; Privoxy 3.0.3; CXO 5.0.1 Dillo 0.8.5, Opera 9.0, Firefox 1.5, Galeon 2.0.1 Remember I have little idea what I am talking about.
