I am using version 7.08 and after a bit of research have founf out that it is a gtk 2.10 problem see link. http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx/.3bc14512 I followed the fix and with a slight alteration it works. I edited the startup script and and added two lines of code ater commenting out the old one as follows :- 418# echo $mfile| sed 's/libgtk-x11-$[0-9]*$.0.so.0.$[0-9]$00.$[0-9]*$\|$.*$/\1\2\3/g' 419 echo $mfile| sed 's/libgtk-x11-$[0-9]*$.0.so.0.$[0-9]*$00.$[0-9]*$\|$.*$/\1\2\3/g' 644# MIN_GTK_VERSION="240" 645 MIN_GTK_VERSION="2040" The original fix was just missing an opening quote.

Where are you getting your version from? I believe you can get the latest rpm from adobe.com and it installs fine. 7.0.5 I think is it. -- Mike Chambers Madisonville, KY "Sex is like air, it's not important unless your not getting any!" -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list </blockquote>
