I recently downloaded and installed VLC version 1.1.11 and it works perfectly!  :D


Thanks for mentioning the new VLC version. Just installed it.

Unfortunately it doesn't embrace the latest change for the .../share/lua/playlist/youtube.lua file which is necessary to display youtube videos after some youtube code change in July. See http://mailman.videolan.org/pipermail/vlc-commits/2011-July/008084.html .
Don't know how to do it myself as there's no path like .../share/lua/playlist in the eCS distribution.

This demo runs fine on Firefox 4.0.1
https://mozillademos.org/demos/planetarium/demo.html

...but I just notice that Jupiter moons animation looks different from other platforms. (the orbits are outside the grid).

The Jupiter orbits lying outside the grid seems to be the only fault on eCS.

Otoh, while these orbits lie inside the grid on fedora/firefox 3.6.18, there are several different faults, like pointers ("back to space", "previous planet", "next planet") not working and a disordered layout (the word "planet" appears standing on its head).
On another fedora machine, with firefox 3.5.9, the same bugs are showing plus the Jupiter orbits outside the grid. (Don't know, however, whether firefox 3.5 was supposed to support HTML5.)

No problem here on eCS 2.1.
Just unzipped the VLC 1.1.9 package into a g:\vlc2\ directory subtree and changed the LIBPATH entry in CONFIG.SYS to g:\vlc2\usr\local\lib.
Everything is running fine. (Except 50% of my movie DVDs.)

Kalimera! I don't speak greek, but understand a little because I had holidays there.What's with OS/2 and open-source community there?

Never met an OS/2 guy in Greece. Seems that all Greek OS/2 and eCS users are in GB, australia, or the US.

All I need to put some files and get files remotely to eCS 2.1.
How can I access eCS remotely(Samba or openSSH)?

I just tested the samba connection between a fedora 11 client and an eCS 2.1 machine.
One partition on the eCS system was shared.
After adding the line
       client ntlmv2 auth = no
to the global section of the linux smb.conf file
the eCS share is accessible from the linux CLI with smbclient.

I'm using Peter Moylan's FTP server to transfer files to and from eCS from a remote machine with a different OS.
Not yet tried to access eCS with samba or SSH.

Hi all,

yes, I'm using rsync in my LAN. At the moment, there's one client machine running eCS 2.1 and one rsync server machine running eCS 2.0 rc5. I intend to add a fedora client later.
There are several WPS rsync objects for dedicated tasks which I start manually whenever needed to invoke a backup of the files associated with the task.

Hi Bojan89

Sounds like you need to install a unicode font and use that in the browser; I use Arial Unicode MS (aka ARIALUNI.TTF) in browser, Preferences, Serif.

I would give you a url to download this large font package but it seems the site I downloaded it from no longer exists...

Regards

Pete


Hi Pete, Bojan89

I don't have Arial Unicode MS on my systems. Instead, I'm using Times New Roman MT30 configured as Default Font on the Options page of firefox. File tnrmt30.cmb is part of the eCS installation. I don't have any problems viewing web pages with cyrillic characters when using Character Encoding UTF-8.

I know russian language,but my browser doesn't recognize russian letters and I don't know what they write on forum...

Hi Bojan89,
what do you mean by "my browser doesn't recognize russian letters"?
Do you have an example of a webpage with cyrillic letters that can't be read?

Cheers/2
