Does gnash work as good as flash 9?

http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/

It's in beta, and doesn't support Flash 9, if that's what you mean.

That's not quite correct.

It does support a number of Flash9 features last time I checked, though it couldn't do navigation within the media. That might have been fixed by now.

According to the user manual, Gnash is mainly focused on Flash 7, and has more problems then navigation. It does appear to play some, particularly older, Flash 9 videos, however I don't know if any would work in the current DSL environment.

Has anyone else had any experience with nspluginwrapper on DSL? It is what the BSDs use to run flash 9. I have been watching about an hour of Youtube videos without any crashes or hangs on my Debian Sarge 2.4 kernel build host with Firefox 2.0.0.14. I am using nspluginwrapper version 0.9.91.5, but on DSL I get the video grey screen (when using flash 9 build 115) that has been reportedly fixed in version 0.9.91.6. I am having a little trouble building version 0.9.91.6 due to undeclared glib thread stuff, but I will keep trying. Another solution would be to use the next earlier build of flash 9. I was just curious if anyone has had good luck with thix, or has versions 0.9.91.6 built.

There's also a beta of Flash 10 available, it might bring things better (or worse..)
