If you haven’t yet noticed, Adobe released a “pre-release quality” version of their penguin.swf version. That would mean, boys and girls, Flash plugin for 64-bit architecture. Installation might need some workout (I downloaded the installer script of the normal flash and removed the architecture check function), but:
[12:32] < Myrtti> this almost makes me cry
[12:32] < Myrtti> no npviewer.bin trashing my cpu fan
REMEMBER TO FILE ALL THE BUGS YOU FIND!
if this gets good enought maybe we can get it into Jaunty and then backport it to Ibex and hardy

What do you mean with that IRC quote?
In intrepid sometimes my pc gets frozen and cooler starts spinning like mad; i am beginning to think it’s because of flash. Any ideas about it?
Cool, I’ve modified flashplugin-nonfree to handle the new Alpha plugin. I don’t want to upload it to Jaunty until Fabien Tassin has had a chance to look it over: https://launchpad.net/~kees/+archive
@Kees Cook, the changes that you made are similar to mine. I chatted with Fabien and Alexander yesterday, and we’re going to discuss how to best approach flashplugin-nonfree for both arches at UDS. There are at least a couple issues on the table, least of which are whether to continue using nspluginwrapper and whether the package really belongs in -partner. Before we flesh them out, it’s best that we hold off uploading to jaunty.

I do not know how you, guys, but I can not work with it. Every time it seems to me that my PC is going to die.
