It depends on the flash clip you are trying to play. See http://wiki.gnashdev.org/FAQ#What_should_gnash_play.3F http://bugs.debian.org/724732#10
-- BTW real conflict is between browser-plugin-lightspark and flashplayer-installer (adobe one): /etc/alternatives/flash-mozilla.so -> /usr/lib/lightspark/liblightsparkplugin.so /etc/alternatives/mozilla-flashplugin -> /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so Ubuntu maintainers renamed gnash alternative from flash-mozilla.so to mozilla-flashplugin, but they didn't rename lightspark one, so if you install both lightspark and adobe ones, browser sees both. about:plugins page confirms that. User should be able to switch among them with: $ sudo update-alternatives --config mozilla-flashplugin # on Ubuntu, whenever lightspark alternative is renamed as well $ sudo update-alternatives --config flash-mozilla.so # on Debian Fix # update-alternatives --remove "flash-mozilla.so" /usr/lib/lightspark/liblightsparkplugin.so # update-alternatives --install "/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/flashplugin-alternative.so" "mozilla-flashplugin" /usr/lib/lightspark/liblightsparkplugin.so 0 ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #724732 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=724732 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1266015 Title: browser-plugin-gnash should conflict with browser-plugin-lightspark To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnash/+bug/1266015/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
