The biggest complaints I've been reading are that Flash is not open source so developers have no chance to go in and fix the issue for Linux. PulseAudio people, Firefox people, Ubuntu people, etc. are all pointing the finger at one point. Well, if this is true, then Adobe should at the very least open source the Linux version of their plugin to the community. I'm going to be forced to remove the flash plugin from my browser temporarily in case some stupid site in flash takes down my whole system.

In the meantime, I read that the new Flash Beta 10 plugin solves these problems. I've linked the plugin here so you can get it. Also, I believe you need to add libflashsupport using something like apt-get or synaptic for compatibility since there might still be some issues with PulseAudio and Flash.

Funny how Adobe's Beta software works far better. This isn't something new for me either. But again, if they just open source their stuff I think these frustrations might go away....]]> Mon, 09 Jun 2008 17:37:38 -0600 http://www.keithwatanabe.net/blogs/2008/6/9/fb8d533f235411bff82a1d2ae6530d25.html
