I'm wondering if anyone running CentOS 5.5 has Shockwave on Firefox working.
I have made no attempt to watch longer videos with flash. I do watch 3-5 minute music videos all the time, but I use mplayer for those (even the FLV files I have downloaded from YouTube).
Is Shockwave the same thing as Flash? At least for Windows two separate installers are needed.
AFAIK, Shockwave isn't available for anything but Windows and possibly Mac, while a working Flash is available for most platforms.
Just to mention it, I've installed the 64b Adobe Flash preview release on CentOS 5.5 x64 and can now luxuriate in viewing Youtube from Linux. 8-]
