Watching videos on Yahoo News works!

[Mark Wallace]

They probably don't support Linux.  They probably went to Flashplayer for reasons unrelated to Linux.  The hero is Flash Player.
   
  Now, If they would only get a Linux edition of Shockwave.

Dotan, when did Yahoo start supporting linux? 
dsl.sbc.yaho.com has been my home page for a long time
and I have requested Yahoo help since installing
Kubuntu Dapper about 6 months ago several times and
they have said via email that they don't support
linux.
Also had trouble making mozilla browser play embedded
videos, period, while firefox and swiftfox played
everything. But a couple of months ago mozilla
suddenly started playing embedded videos after an
update. Then all 3 browsers would hang(freeze up) and
I'd have to kill it or X and start all over to get the
browser to play once or twice before it froze again.
Reinstalling the browsers and kde seems to have fixed
things for now. Never could get a solution to the
mozilla browser not playing embedds from the list or
from Kevin DeCorte of mplayer-plugin list.
When you say Yahoo supports Linux, do you mean that
you actually get email support re: linux when you
request it? Please elaborate.
TFAR,
