          I am installing RC1 but I realize the flash player shows no text in both firefox and konqueror. I tried both running the script from the tar ball and apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree. I have already have gsfont and gsfont-x11 installed. I also installed msttcorefonts but still no luck.

          But still: there are font-problems with flashplugin-nonfree as well, and I use all kinds of fonts mentioned on all kind of Linux websites and here in the forum.

I really would love to see that Adobe-Macromedia-sh*t blown to the moon, but unfortunatelly it's part of web life. And more and more I come across flash-sites, where I cannot read the letters, and I really have installed quite a lot of fonts, for sure all common fonts (open and proprietary). And I think, it's not Linux, it's the flash for Linux, they are producing, which is faulty. Just say that without being able to verify it, of course.

          piper,
 
 
possibly there are signs that there are more Linux users than we think. As I see the german news magazine www.spiegel.de have gone back to flash 7 for their video-news. I am sure, they used flash 8, because I was not able to watch them a few months ago under Linux. Maybe somebody else might confirm that.
 
 
But I am not sure if Adobe care that flash is some kind of standard as "being widely used".

          hubi, for me it said that I need flash 8, and yes I don't think adobe cares either.
 
 
h2,   i wonder if  flashplugin-nonfree is the difference, I am going to uninstall this and go to that in ff. |

          h2,
 
 
if you mean:
 
http://www.autobahn.nrw.de/olsim3_1/rgwest30.html
 
 
The only common font that has not been installed was Tahoma, I have done that now and restarted X. Still no hope. What could that font be. It might really be only a font issue.

          | I switched to "flashplugin-nonfree"  instead of "flashplayer-mozilla" and I am using tahoma fonts, I still can't see text on the left. I have tried tahoma, free sans, bitstream and verdana, very odd |

          Another thing. A right click on a flash brings up a context menue and there is sg like "configuration" ("Einstellung" in German), there are no fonts anymore either - they definitely were always there. That's weird.
