I had gnash working fine two months ago, then it stopped, even in firefox3. I even had gnash-devel working. It loads and starts, but does not actually do anything. I was getting occaisional errors when the plugin was cleaning up, some messages about any errors after this point are due to thread cleanup right before segfaults, but it is not consistent and mostly just does not work. So, totem works fine now, but gnash does not work anymore. I wish I knew why! I miss You Tube!
