One of the biggest problems I have running linux on a PowerPC mac it that there is not flash player for this plataform. I use gnash and I can watch and use a lot of flash content, but I cannnot watch youtube videos at least I download them using clive and playing them (I use mplayer). Gnash used to work for youtube, but it stopped working about a month ago. I use Debian Lenny Kosa - Un mundo mejor es posible - Standard youtube is 320x240 (but they are experimenting with higher resolution) . Maybe you would have to encode it to mpeg-4 though, don't know if it will work through flash. nice post about the video acceleration: http://unadventure.wordpress.com/2008/06/08/accelerating-in-my-pocket/ y On Sat, Jun 28, 2008 at 12:17 PM, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I would like to know more about that too. Especially I would like to know how real devices work - are they slow or not? I don't really need 3d games or anything, but i don't want my smartphone to be slow. Also is it possible in theory to play youtube videos?
