Subject: [gentoo-ppc-user] Flash plugin for ppc

Hello all,

Just like a lot among you, I long for a working Flash plugin for 
PPC/Linux. Well, it now seems that swfdec 0.2.2 (http://swfdec.sf.net) 
as of May 18th is able to handle at least some Flash6 web content on a 
PPC based Mozilla.

I was able to display http://www.campchaos.com Flash animations just 
fine with my setup, though it lacked sound. Also, it seems that Flash 
navigation doesn't work yet, as http://www.macromedia.com wouldn't let 
me navigate the site even with the plugin. But at least it didn't 
display an annoying "missing plugin" msg or crash like previous swfdec 
versions...

I believe this is at long last a true step into a fully working flash 
player for ppc.

Greetings,
Olivier Reisch
