Black Screen
 
When I go to some sites to download a rpm for my RH8 I get nothing but a blank black page in mozilla and Netscape. What do I do to fix this.
Thanks

maybe the sties are unavailable or some site error, i get this a view times too, but after a day or so the site works again

That's not it. Can't ever get rpms from freshmeat or some of the other rpm sites.

Can you download any rpms? ie from anywhere at all?

Redbone981sl 08-20-2003 08:35 PM
Yes I can download from rh and twocows but some sites just come up black.

Some sites store RPMs with the .rpm extension which can cause the realplayer plugin to try and open the file. Try "right clicking" on the link and select "save link target as".

Check your mozilla settings. It could be something to do with file associations. as ovf says.
