2013-05-16 12:23:12 - Chrome not showing some text
[Everything is normal now...]

This night, while I was sleeping there was a Windows update at my PC...

When I went to SOL this morning I noticed that Chrome wasn't showing the figures at Navigation Panel (Speed, Course, TWA, ...). The same for information at command panel form, and at chatroom select and at all buttons. Classic client has same behaviour.

Firefox is working fine. Flash Player is updated.

There is anybody else with a similar problem?

Thanks and good wind all

Chrome uses its own version of Flash, apparently, called Pepper Flash or something.

You can disable that and use normal flash (if its installed) by going into the plugins. I had to do that to see TV on my laptop.

Into the url-space of a new tab type (ith no spaces

about : plugins

This will bring up the list of plugins being used by Chrome. Look for the Flash Player(s) and disable the one that has pepflashplayer.dll at the end of its Location url.

That's worked for me :-)

Rodrigo. I use Chrome on Win7 Pro 64 bit and never have a problem. I have Win, Chrome & Flash set to automatically update and I also use CCleaner regularly to clear all caches. Its a free download, try it if you are not already doing so. http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner

Mad Max by Balloon 2026 - Across the Outback


Mad Max Rockatansky doesn’t get to go in a balloon in any of the Legends of the Wasteland, and the Wasteland is not necessarily the Outback of Australia, but Mel Gibson and film director George Miller indubitably are… of Australia, and ballooning as reconnaissance is a main feature of the Mad Max spin-off video game, so here goes: 1500nm in a balloon from somewhere on the edge of the Outback, Goondiwindi, to cross a finish line at Fitzroy Crossing, somewhere on the edge of the Outback!
