yeah but if flash 9 is the most you can do (i want youtube and a few similar web applets, 9 does those) i think open source is almost there. well beyond my experience, but i don't know why people never make it into extensions/.deb/.rpm ... i read that it can do flv now, but no way to confirm it. i'd rather youtube with that than use adobe, given the option. adobe isn't stable either.
roberts:
We now have a flash9 download extension with download dependency check.
This automates the process. Works for either browser and seems quite stable to me.
bigpcman:
I just tried loading minefield followed by getflash9. Firefox comes up fine but does not play youtube videos. Is there something else necessary? Also tried Opera same results.
I'm not sure what "You must have downloaded browser and oss means? What OSS? Also, what does "you must have OSS started with the sound on the menu"?
I installed opera fired it up and it works fine. I then installed getflash9. I looked in the quick preferences and sound is enabled.
Any ideas?
edit:
silly me, oss is another extention for the sound system.
edit2:
OK, I think I have finally followed all the instructions. I installed Opera and OSS. I started OSS and turned sound on. I started up opera one time. I then installed getflash9. I then went over to youtube again. No dice, still get message I don't have latest flash player. Also, there are no plugins shown for opera.
tobiaus:
you still have to run getflash from the menu.
it should have been obvious to me too, i think a few people are going to have this issue.
