Is any one using it and can comment on it being a viable replacement for adobe flash for general web browsing? There is also some comment here (http://lwn.net/Articles/389266/) on various linuc flash players. I can test specific sites but hope that someone who has used it for awhile can comment better, especially on limitations which are not obvious from the website. Gentoo specific: are there any x86 32/64 bit issues/differences? troll ~ # esearch lightspark [ Results for search key : lightspark ] [ Applications found : 1 ] * www-plugins/lightspark [ Masked ] Latest version available: 0.4.2_rc2 Latest version installed: [ Not Installed ] Size of downloaded files: 239 kB Homepage: https://launchpad.net/lightspark/ Description: High performance flash player License: LGPL-3
