I also used the pre-compiled libflashsupport.so binary referred to in the thread. Then used nspluginwrapper to add links for native apps. Linux support is fc8. It works in native firefox3, albeit without audio. Firefox does not crash. Flash apps quietly run to completion. Youtube works. It does not work in native opera. -jr --Sig_/3JmosvK1n6stL6FNJ=3O=i8 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAkj3osAACgkQls33urr0k4k55ACgo00SdMJYp2W2PZhI3inz3zcf 04kAn3yZa+zQGy12nkJhWK2o+RgxrHcm =77G/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/3JmosvK1n6stL6FNJ=3O=i8--
