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

Africa by Sea - Tangier to Abidjan


Whatever about pharaoh Necho II’s Phoenician expedition of the 7th C BCE, the Carthaginian Hanno the Navigator with more certainty sailed south from Tangier to explore the West African coast two centuries later, but how far he got is a matter of more conjecture. However, if he did the 2300nm to today’s Ivory Coast he would have found little there other than good shelter in the vast lagoons behind the dunes, much the same as today, excepting the highly industrialized port of Abidjan. Not a great haven for a stop-over but let’s take the 90ft Monohull anyway.

Melbourne Osaka Cup Double-Handed Yacht Race 2025

Welcome once again to what these days is Sailonline’s almost annual virtual Melbourne to Osaka Yacht Race. In real life, this double-handed 5500 nm race between these two sister cities, one deep in the southern hemisphere, the other high in the northern hemisphere, is run every four to five years, and this year is such a year. So, this year’s online version is in sync with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organised by the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. We’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat which should be a good match for many of the boats entered in the real race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across our course, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!
