Gnash now works fine with the agg renderer and Iceweasel version 2.0.0.14 from Debian Etch, tested with http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EOrG1r3S6ZA

MySpace doesn't work at all, e.g. http://www.myspace.com/nickcaveandthebadseeds but that's a different ticket, I guess :-)

Cheers!

Daniel

OpenGL renderer changed a lot since Jan 2007...
Does the problem persist ?

When using Gnash with Firefox 1.5, the Gnome desktop's mouse pointer sometimes vanishes, to be replaced by a larger, fuzzy black box. It only happens on web pages with Flash content, and I never saw this behaviour before installing gnash.

I'm testing the 0.7.2 package from Debian unstable, opengl renderer, running the 64 Studio 1.0 distro on an AMD64 dual-processor machine.

We're going to try a custom package with the agg renderer next.
