So, how's it working? Anyone emerged it yet?
The binary is working ... the mirrors are hosed on the source version,
though. They have the binary version and the checksums don't match.
I was able to get good source. It built and it absolutely hauls the
proverbial ass.
have you tried it with the new gnash plugin and the new icedtea (the free
openjdk java plugin that seems to be compatible at 90% with java6 ) on amd64
arch?
No I haven't. How is it?
well, icedtea, from the latest news in my possession has merged with openjdk ad java plugin and it supports nearly 90% of java around (this means that there's no need for a 32bit wrapper for java with firefox).
gnash is now fully compatible with flash v7 and has about 50% of flash 8 and 9 serie. now with the opening of the flash format specifications gnash should progress much faster than it was before. for example i've read that with firefox 2 with gnash and java youtube (usually a quite bad site for flash players and which has also some java code included, for my knowledge) is playing well (more than 85% of videos work well and the remnants just need to use the gnash controls to work).
but as i've said, i haven't tried it yet so i don't know if these assertions are reallly true.
