Tried gnash but it did not work for me. It had many crashes, lockups etc. I am running slackware 12.0, VESA video driver and konqueror as my browser. I will not recommend it now for sure. I Dont know about swfdec though. Never tried it myself. And I don't think flash should be endorsed by FOSS. It is not an open format AFAIK. I consider not having flash a feature.. ;) especially with metered downloads..
