For sites like youtube (admittedly, not tested recently on ppc - I haven't booted my G5 for a while) it is still a bit hit-and-miss. e.g. a couple of days ago I found a link to a Pt1 of an old film - didn't do anything, but Pt2 of the same film was fine. FWIW, I also tried swfdec on x86 - it crashed (self-compiled) firefox twice. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-powerpc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

The other flash choice for powerpc is swfdec-mozilla, which I think is installed by default on Lenny as I just did a fresh install, but I haven't tried setting it up or anything.

You should be able to upgrade to Lenny. just edit your /etc/apt/sources.list file so everything points to Lenny instead of Etch and then do a apt-get update and then you can yupgrade the system either view by the graphical package manger and click on mark all upgrades then click apply or via command line by apt-get dist-upgrade I believe Lenny is close to being release so it is very stable.

Re: Adobe flash player replacement?
Hi everybody, Many thanks!! Everything's now working. I think the command is: apt-get install swfdec-mozilla Yes, that did the trick. I took all last night to upgrade to Lenny (I've got lots of stuff installed) and ran this line this morning. Now the web site opens fine and the videos show up. Thanks to all for your help!!

Adobe flash player replacement?
Hi folks, I've come back here after 12 months away doing other non-Debian things. Anyway I did a net-install of Etch on my trusty G5 iMac and everything went very smoothly. I remembered to avoid some of the pitfalls I'd run into before, and looked in the archives both here and at Ubuntu for my messages from last year to see what I did then -- e.g. with my ISP it was important to disable ipv6. Anyway, I'm going to have a few questions so here's the first one. I went to the web site of a certain very large European airospace company, and it said I needed Adobe flash player to access the content. With a button taking me to the Adobe site so I could download it. Well of course there are versions for Windows, MacOSX Intel, MacOSX PowerPC, and Linux Intel. Naturally, no Linux PowerPC. Does anybody know of a flash player raplacement I can download that will let me access the content? I obviously should check out Gnash -- will that do it? I probably don't need all the bells and whistles - just enough to let me access the content of web sites like the one I mentioned.
