There are known problems. Something is buggy in the kernel. We don't =20
know what the exact problem is, nobody had time or incentive so far to =20
hunt down the problem.

You need to set the linux compatibility from the default 2.4.2 to =20
2.6.16, and you need a more recent linux_base (read: not the default =20
fc4 but e.g. f7).

There's a different thread about flash and eculp@??? reported there =20
that the plugin is loaded by firefox but crashes. I've also seen =20
reports that it doesn't crash, but I think those people where just =20
lucky and didn't use the subset of flash which triggers the crash.

Bye,
Alexander.
