 How do I install the flash plug in for ice weasel...

There's no native plugin for Linux yet. The adobe x86 plugin does work
but the support framework was rejected for lenny.

You may have read the release announcement:
http://www.debian.org/News/2009/20090214

That's what the Debian project feels about flash support. Other people
need better accuracy and use the proprietary plugin. It depends on your
flash needs.

 Do you have a url for the proprietary plugin for linux-ppc ?
Looking at adobe.com, they only claim to support x86 linux.

 Not that I'm recommending people to use non-free plugins, but I
might be willing to give it a try.

 On all the platforms I've tried, when gnash works, it is nice (and
when it doesn't work, it just fails to do anything).  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.

Such plugin doesn't exist.
When it comes to gnash and youtube - it just works.
I use it with Opera (yeah, I know) since Arora doesn't support plugins
yet.

I have an iBook G3 and sleep is working just fine with Lenny.
Although, I've disabled gnome-power-manager (which was causing
problems) from System-Preferences-Sessions, and I'm allowing
pbbuttonsd and powernowd to control this. Pbbuttonsd is the main
utility that controls suspend and the laptop specific keys like screen
brightness, sound, and the eject button.

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. I run it on my ps3.

OK, but could I install Lenny beta2 without wiping out all my current 
installation?  (This is actually another question I wanted to ask at some

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?

2008-10-12 Thread Mike Hore
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.


TIA,  Mike.

Gnash doesn't work very well (at least for me, it didn't).
May be you could try using swfdec which works pretty decent, also renders
youtube's player almost 100% correct.
