Indeed! ;)

Right.  Youtube works fine, for example, and others as well.

This produces a blank white page, with the following Page Info:


Code:
--------------------
    
  slimfx.swf (application/x-shockwave-flash Object):
  Address: http://localhost:9000/slimfx/html/slimfx.swf
  Type: application/x-shockwave-flash
  Render Mode: Quirks mode
  Cache Source: Not cached
  Encoding: ISO-8859-1
  Size: Unknown
  [...]
--------------------


Further more, if I look under the Media tab (still in the Page Info
panel), I see:


Code:
--------------------
    
  Address: http://localhost:9000/slimfx/html/slimfx.swf
  [...]
  Type: application/x-shockwave-flash
  Cache Source: Not cached
  [...]
  *Specified Dimentions: 0px × 0px*
--------------------


Notice the last line - could that be the problem? BTW, I also restarted
the browser and cleared the cache - no difference.

OK.  I didn't mention it, but I can "telnet localhost 9090" without any
problem (though I don't know how to issue CLI commands).  I don't think
the CLI is the culprit here.  More likely some Flash/Firefox/Linux
quirk...  I wonder if anyone else has used this skin with a Linux
browser and the latest Flash?  Might be possible to try using a
Live-CD. Knoppix and 'these instructions'
(http://linuxactivist.blogspot.com/2007/02/put-little-flash-in-it-adding-flash.html)
would seem like a good option...  Might try it myself if I find a little
time.

Thanks for your help, BTW!
