Is there anything it *does* work with, or is it just irredeemably buggy? 
(i.e., can you distinguish bugs in the flash app from bugs in the flash 
implementation?)

I haven't really had any problems with it, except for the crashes being reported here, and (as
a developer) problems with uploads and downloads on secured sites, related to Flash not
getting session and HTTP credentials when transferring files (why in the world the player is
doing the transfer of files itself, instead of using the browser as it does for all other
comm, is beyond me...).

Oh, and a few font size differences when using system fonts instead of embedded fonts, but
that is almost unavoidable, given the differences in the system's rendering (Which both
Windows and Linux sucks at, but that is a completely other subject).
