    Playing videos doesn´t work

    Try this. go to msn.com, scrow down and look for "video higlight". try to open and see what happen?

    If you´re successfull, please let me know, I´d like to have this feature working on my suse 10.2 but it doesn´t. I tryed Opera 9, Firefox 2.0, Epiphani, konkeror and nothing.

    There´s anyone that knows how to make this work?

    You need flash 8 or above. I hear that Flash 9 has been released for Linux have not tried it though. Never was a Flash 8 for Linux. I currently have Flash 7 installed I think.

    Here is where you can get it

    Let us all know if it works

    Just tried it works fine. It still is a beta though.

    Note if you are running Suse 64 bit then the install will probably fail Just copy the .so and .xpt file from the gz version to /usr/lib/firefox/plugins directory restart Firefox and your good to go.

    BTW this still appears to be a beta but it looked very good on my system.

    Flash 9 plugin has been available for quite a while on the mozdev plugindoc page in beta for 32 bit systems. Worked great, but I upgraded to the new release this morning. It works fine on msn link. According to the info on 64 bit at mozdev, you can run the flash 9 plugin under codeweavers crossover.

    If you are running 32 bit Firefox even on 64 bit os just copy the files to plugins. At least in 10.1 you get the 32bit version unless you go out of your way to install the 64 bit.
