Gnash works but it does have a few niggles. I tried the following: > This is what I did for a 7.2 box.

Find a site with flash content[*], > and enjoy. Everything installed easily and about:plugins has Shockwave Flash and FutureSplash Player as enabled. But, when I go to youtube.com all I get a black screen and the video doesn't load. Does anyone have any ideas why flash isn't working? David
