Flash Player 9 for Linux - finally released!

Today the final version of the Flash Player 9 for Linux has been released - go get it!

I have actually enjoyed two beta releases prior to this final release and I have to say there were stable enough for me - despite the odd Firefox crash while watching several movies in a row and occasional video/audio synchronization issue that I didn't like. I'm already seeing the effects of audio/video synchronization issues that have been resolved in the final version and I really hope it proves to be more stable as well...

I find it especially pleasing that, probably for the first time in history, version number of Flash Player for Linux is higher than version number of Flash Player for any other platform - it used to be the other way round...

Additional Article Position Options Mod for sNews 1.5

I've been wanting to write a full explanation for this mod where I outline and teach you all the php functions I've learned while cracking this mod, but that turned out to be an awfully lengthy and tedious process for which I don't have time right now.

So what I've done is I've implemented the mod into the fresh install of the latest sNews stable version (developers version 1.5.30) which you can download easily and use it as you please.

While I've done everything in my power to make this work, please don't hold me responsible if something doesn't work or if something brakes.
It is vital that you backup your snews.php file and your existing MySQL database, just to be safe and that you can switch back if you wish so later. (Just rename your existing snews.php file into something else and upload this modified one. And I've found some instructions for backing up your MySQL database for you if you've never done it before - it's a piece of cake, especially if you have PHPMyAdmin.)

I'd appreciate if you'd let me know if you find this mod useful.

snews.php_add_article_position_mod.tar.bz2 - 19,9KB

snews.php_add_article_position_mod.zip - 22,4KB


P.S. I haven't given up from writing the full explanation yet, it's just that this is immediate and the full explanation will have to wait a bit more...
