Savvas Radevic (medigeek) wrote : firefox - red x icons in upload dialogs

Binary package hint: nspluginwrapper

Hardy heron 8.04 (alpha5 until beta) updated amd64 / x86_64
Mozilla Firefox 3.0 beta 5

I have several sites where I can see this problem
They pop up an upload dialog in firefox and ask for files to upload.
For example: http://www.scribd.com/upload or try to upload media (a picture) in the new wordpress 2.5

Everytime I click on "click to upload", it pops up a file dialog where it asks me to choose a file to upload.
The problems are:
1) I can't see the icons of the filesystem, only icons marked with a red "X"
2) Don't know if it's related, but Firefox seems to hang while I navigate through to choose a specific file to upload.

I think they use a flash-based upload.

Could be related to bug #140604 as I get a warning when I click "click to upload":
(npviewer.bin:10801): Gtk-WARNING **: /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/filesystems/libgio.so:
