Mozilla and Firefox fail to work with Google Maps
I was busy last week and failed to post a message about a bug that exists on Solaris for both Mozilla 1.7.8 and Firefox 1.0.4 when Google Maps is used.
There was a problem in the libmozjs.so library, and you can get a new one at this link if you are seeing this problem.
Please check bug 298298 which seems to have been marked as a duplicate of 297750. Future builds should be taken care of. ( Jul 25 2005, 02:56:04 AM PDT ) Permalink Comments [3]
Silicon Valley OpenSolaris User Group Meeting - Tues. July 26th
PLEASE READ FOR CHANGE OF VENUE FOR THIS MEETING!!!
Where: Sun Menlo Park Campus, building 17 - In the Van Ness Conference room When: Tuesday, July 26 Time: 7:30pm-10:00pm
We had a scheduling conflict with the Santa Clara Auditorium room we have been using, but it has been decided that the show must go on. We will be holding the next OpenSolaris User Group meeting for Silicon Valley at the Sun Headquarter campus, in building 17 of the Menlo Park Campus. For those who are not familiar, this is the heart of Solaris, and the home of those who brought you OpenSolaris!
This will also be a chance for you to see the BIG F'N WEBTONE SWITCH which resides just inside the lobby of MPK17. Our long and fearless leader, Scott McNealy has often referred to the big f'n webtone switch, and AFAIK, this is the only one that exists!;-)
For this meeting, Mike Shapiro will be speaking on the Fault Management Architecture. Mike, as many of you may know is one of the magnificent engineers within Solaris Engineering, and Mike was also intimately involved with DTrace. This meeting is sure to be a night packed with information about FMA, and a topic that is near and dear to Mike's heart.
I will post more details on the location, but the Sun Menlo Park Campus is located at the west end of the Dumbarton Bridge (84) in Silicon Valley, on the Menlo Park side of the bridge. If you take Highway 101 to Willow Road, and head east to the Dumbarton Bridge, The Sun headquarter can be entered by driving straight ahead from Willow Road rather than turning onto 84, you really can't miss it.
Turn right as you enter the Campus, and you will follow the road to Building 17. I will be there to assist people in getting inside, and it would help if you send an RSVP to Alan.DuBoff (at) Sun (dot) com, so that I can enter you into the system. Either way, we'll get you into the meeting. Hope to see you there!
