Gnash is almost there

I had gnash working with Firefox and Epiphany on Debian. YouTube works. All those lovely Flash
adverts work (no, I don't need a date, I'm married. ugh). It seems broken on Ubuntu 08.04, but
I hope it will be fixed soon.

Gnash is almost there

I want flash for some things (esp. BBC iPlayer most of which might be unavailable/commercial
outside the UK). I know that some areas of BBC website are only available if your IP address
is located in the UK.

BBS iPlayer flash generates a lot of gnash messages about something not being implemented yet.
I am told the 32 bit version from adobe runs as a separate program and works fine even on
debian.

Youtube worked fine with gnash last time I looked as do various basic flash support test
pages.
