Opening DE MEW187 in Firefox

Lars-Peder,

I'm reading this on my laptop, which runs ubuntu 11.10, with Firefox 10.0.1 and this combination won't open the digital issues, either. Looks like it could be an issue with ubuntu. I seem to remember having a similar problem with an earlier release of ubuntu, too. No such problems with the desktop running Windows (Vista) + Firefox 11.10. Try the ubuntu community help forum. God luck.

I've just updated to Firefox 10.0.1 in my Ubuntu installation running on Virtualbox and the digital issues work fine for me. Have you done a full update of Ubuntu recently?

Hi

Thank you for the answers.

I have checked and MEW Issue 187 opens in Firefox in my Ubuntu 11.10

installation. The problems seems to be in Lubuntu, both in ver. 11.04 and 11.10.

Again in Lubuntu I am able to open Issue 187 in Chromium.

The strange thing is, that as far as I see the problem is only with issue 187 and

therefor I am tempted to conclude that there is some kind of

difference in the format in Issue 187 compared to the other issues.

I guess there is now way that I can check this. The only way is if the

publisher could check this.

By the way all my Linux installations are updated.

Kind regard,

Lars-Peder

Lars-Peder,

For what it's worth - I've just done a clean re-install of Ubuntu 11.10 and all the asociated files on my laptop and now it opens all the digital issues. It's a long way round to cure the problem, but it passes the Sunday afternoon away!
