http://ubuntuforums.org – hi all, i'm on dv3-2150ej i have just noticed that my laptop is extremely hot but the fun doesn't increasing its rpm rate.... i have checked SystemMonitor and indeed my CPU is at 100 %. it accrued to me last week while using gnash swf mozilla plugin but since then i disabled it, uninstall it, and installed the official macromedia plugin. moreover, while gnash made my cpu's go crazy, the fun kicked in at full speed. any ideas ?

I like the browser Epiphany (now Web or something).

I also hate Flash and I heard about Gnash, its free alternative.

All I want to do is to set up Epiphany somehow to use Gnash on YouTube. I can't get that to work.

I have installed browser-plugin-gnash, but it doesn't do anything. I have plug-ins enabled in Epiphany.

Hello, After installation the new FC17, with gnash-plugin and gnome, I have good results to see some video's in firefox 13.0.

Code: [gastonv@gastonv ~]$ yum list installed | grep gnash gnash.i686                          1:0.8.10-2.fc17              @fedora        gnas

I was trying out Lightspark flash player to see how it worked on ppc. I uninstalled the Gnash browser plugin, installed lightspark with all the packages that came with it in synaptic. Lightspark didn`t work at all, not even detected in browser, so I uninstalled and reinstalled Gnash browser plugin. Ghash works, but I lost all sound, and I think Gnash graphics even got a bit slower.

I decided to give Gnash a try but, after replacing Adobe Flash plugin (using the Flash-Aid adddon in Firefox), the FlashGot button for getting media ('FlashGot Media') is not available anymore.

Here is how it should appear:

DownloadHelper, a Firefox addon similar to FlashGot, works with Gnash very well.

Greetings community--

I am a hardcore Ubuntu user and have been for years. This is my first post.

I am tired of Flash for videos. The HW acceleration just isn't happening without me changing the adobe mms file. However, this is extremely unstable and it crashed.

I have a basic Nvidia GT610 card.

So I have switched to Gnash hoping that it would help me. The 480p is fine.

Looks like Adobe doesn't care about this bug - it has been reported since April and it's still not fixed and bug commits keep getting marked as "not able to reproduce" - what a joke.

Flash (and gnash) not working 15 weeks 2 days ago

How has it stopped working?  Could you describe the behavior a little more?  Also, you could try moving/renaming the flashplugin dot file (.macromedia I think) and/or reinstalling flash.  I've never had much hope for gnash.

I checked at the chat room and folks there tell me that they have seen flash consuming upto 100% CPU . My problem is I cant run flash in my ubuntu box through a browser and hence sites like youtube cant be opened due to OVERHEATING and shutting down laptop . In windows XP the flash is very light and not as heavy .

Cannot build Gnash on x86_64 46 weeks 2 days ago

Aha, I've fixed it. Info on this error was quite hard to find, but I found something on a mailing list mentioning that if one uses a multilib system, 64-bit with both /usr/lib and /usr/lib32, Gnash will use /usr/lib32, although it shouldn't do so. In order to fix this bug, one must edit the "libslist" file at gnash-0.8.10/macros/libslist.
