Gnash 0.8.2 - can I has free flash
As Miry blogs, gnash 0.8.2 (the first beta) works well with youtube and she has packages for Debian ready. Her post forced me to fetch the packages from http://incoming.debian.org and give gnash a try.
Yeah, youtube really works, but this is not the only flash-based service out there, so I decided to try gnash (one more time) in my daily life/work/whatever.
So here is the first shot:
Google Video - does not work
derbauer.de - does display something, but that cannot be called working
unitymedia.de - works fine
myvideo.de - does not work
fonic.de - does display about 30% of the animation
nokia.de - animations work, product chooser misses all images and text
sonyericsson.com - makes gnash <defunct> (so "does not work")
speedtest.net - no text, no functionality, but graphics
some flash/actionscript based games of a friend of mine load, have also text problems and different ActionScript bugs
It does not look good for gnash, but I leave it installed for now to see which pages I will visit tomorrow at work.

Well, after some time, i found:
last.fm player does not work
ebay.de animations work
many other flash films with text in them work but miss the text?!
will try to debug the fonts thingy sometime soon.
