I'm running Ubuntu 8.04 alpha-2 for i386 32-bit desktop on my testing machine. I found a web page with links to flac music files for testing: http://ff123.net/samples.html . I clicked on a link there. Ubuntu popped up a window asking for permission to open it in Movie Player, which I accepted. The player asked for permission to download the missing codec, which I approved and it did. The flac file played perfectly. (I have elsewhere reported that system sounds and midi files don't play sound but .ogg and flash videos do play sound on my system.)
>From what I've seen in other users' comments, the 64-bit versions of Linux are not as well supported with drivers and codecs as the 32-bit version, so many users have said they will stay with the 32-bit releases on their x64 64-bit-capable computers until the situation improves. If you do re-install Ubuntu with the i386 version, please add a comment here to report the results with your flac files.
