It's possible that Firefox had been linked against the jpeg library you had installed before the upgrade. Upgrading Firefox now should fix this. > 2) Ekiga softphone , Epiphany webbrowser can't launch. how to fix ? Maybe the same reason. Can you start it from a terminal session and show the error message? Please do the same with Firefox to check missing library dependencies. > 3)in Sound&Video Movie player , swfdec Flash player etch can't launch > 4) Evolution Mail & calender also can't launced.

Yes, really seems to be the jpeg library. > what I made wrong, how can I fix these issues, I really need > a FreeBSD7.2 Desktop in my this notebook, As it looks to me, you upgraded the jpeg library to a newer version (to fulfill a requirement of OpenOffice), but the applications you have installed still require the older library that doesn't exist anymore on your system. To fix this, either re-install the older library version (this is what you surely do NOT want because of OpenOffice), or upgrade all applications that depend on the jpeg library. Tools like portmaster or portupgrade can help you with this, so you don't need to upgrade everything manually. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
