Explain a blank page (konqueoror), or a page with a nice big square with a no-script icon on it (icecat)? Sure. Hovering over the icon says it's a flash object. Since flash is proprietary, I don't have it installed, thus the big blank boxes. I could of course try gnash or swfdec, but while it was awhile ago I tried gnash last, I never /did/ get it to do much besides show a more or less featureless box (and no-script does that), and while I had better luck with swfdec, the compile order between it and icecat/firefox and apparently a couple other dependencies had to be /just/ right, or it wouldn't work either. It would thus work (well) part of the time, and not work at all, the rest of the time, until I happened to get exactly the correct compile and install order right, again. Unfortunately, the usual revdep-rebuild tool used to spot and auto-rebuild changed ABI dependencies didn't seem to work here, so eventually I just got tired of it and unmerged it, too. Now if they'd use proper HTML5 instead of the proprietary stuff, icecat could present that just fine... -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
