sorry, this is OT.

I'm using the 9.x flash plugin with firefox on Centos 5.

I keep hearing about "fullscreen mode" in flash, and it is said that it works on Linux. How do you get into that mode?

I saw some videos from youtube the other day on a windows box and they were full screen.

On my Centos box the same videos play in a small window in the browser. I see no mechanism at all for entering a fullscreen mode.

Clues?

First, you need a prerelease version of the Flash plugin:

Second, the Flash movie needs to request full-screen mode. Try the various controls in it.
