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

Back in 2013, longstanding SOLer Musigny and his friend xthyra invited us for a three race tour of beautiful Lake Vättern in the heart of southern Sweden. After many years, we return there for a quick sprint from a start in front of the village of Brandstorp, either way around Visingso island in the middle of the lake, but PORT HAND ROUND a buoy off the Granna piers on the eastern shore and back, once again avoiding Visingso as best you can. At least 20nm in trusty Scandinavian 11m One Designs; good luck!

Chinook Salmon - Canada to Andreanovs


A year after spawning in the upper reaches of the rivers of British Columbia, Chinook Salmon develop the age-old urge, so familiar to SOLers, to go to sea, heading for different parts of the northern Pacific Ocean. This race catches up with a particular school with an instinctive memory for the Andreanov Islands far west on the Aleutian Islands chain, as they depart the Salian Sea between Vancouver Island and the San Juans. It’s 2200nm and we’re taking the 60ft Trimaran, in the hope we can keep up!
