If you actually compared what your box vs Joe's was showing then it might be worth investigating what made the difference. Somehow I doubt Gnash vs propritary Adobe Flash would make all of that difference based on my prior experience, but that's only based on testing the two on the same hardware. You and Joe have very different setups, so it's a lot less clear what might be the reason. -- Chris -- Chris Knadle [email protected] _______________________________________________ Mid-Hudson Valley Linux Users Group http://mhvlug.org http://mhvlug.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mhvlug Upcoming Meetings (6pm - 8pm) MHVLS Auditorium Jan 6 - Git Feb 3 - Arduino Mar 3 - Gnome 3 & 7 year bday!
