<solved> Still can't get flash to work on opera

<< < (2/3) > >>

curaga:
If you do "ldd /path/to/flash.so", does it list anything as not found?

bigpcman:
Ok now I'm getting somewhere. I noticed that I had loaded emelfm2 just before opera when flash started working. So I tried it without emelfm2 and indeed flash failed. So what does emelfm2 load that flash needs - it's something in this list besides OSS, gtk+-2 and opera.

edit: re dd command - searched for flash.so but could not find it.

Here's what I found it takes to get flash to work with opera

1.) installed flash.tce
2.) installed oss.tczm and turned sound on via menu.
3.) installed opera.tzc
4.) installed expat2.tczl
5.) installed fontconfig.tczl
6.) installed glib2tczl
7.)installed gtk+-2.tczl

run opera and flash should work

roberts:
If you are using "z" type extensions then it is true that flash9.tce should be loaded first.

This occurs automatically when stored in your tce directory. So upon reboot the order is correct with flash9.tce loading first. All .tces load before any .tczs. The reason is that Opera ".tcz" would be read only for the plugins directory. By loading flash9.tce first, the plugins directory is created and .tcz does not overwrite existing directories.

The others can be loaded via appbrowser allowing for the automatic dep files to download and installed. oss.tczm and gtk+-2.tczl

bigpcman:
Robert, thanks for that insight.  What you have pointed out is an important aspect of how to use tinycore "packages".  Regarding auto loading of all the other programs and libraries as a result of a ".dep" fille, my experience is that there is no ".dep" file associated with opera or flash, or even oss that completely loads all the support files. I had to install all the other support files one by one.
